Skin irritation, allergy, itching, rash
I have been facing skin rashes & itching over stomach, back, foot & a tattoo area. (It looks like a dark spot on stomach & back & a dark patch over a foot)
The problem first occurred nearly 8 months back. I used Betnovate-C & a homeopathic treatment but it didn't help.

You may be having fun gal infection over these areas. The treatment for fungal infection is simple. You have to take anti fungal tablets and creams for 4 to 6 weeks following which it resolves. Do not apply soap on that area and do not self treat with over the counter steroid creams like betnovate c, it can cause side effects. Mistreatment with steroid creams and self treatment with cheaper medicine is the most common reason for recurrent disease. Kindly send photos using online consult option for accurate diagnosis and treatment. If this is fungal infection, it needs to be treated as early as possible as it will spread further on your body and also to other people in the household.
