Question

I'm dealing with jock itch and recently tried to remove hair in the area, but now it's itching like crazy because the small hair follicles are growing back and it's really uncomfortable. Is there some kind of ointment that can numb the surface? The jock itch seems to be almost cured, but this new itching from the hair follicles is driving me mad.

Question

I've been noticing a black line across my cuticle on my thumb, and it's been worrying me a bit. The skin behind it seems slightly inflamed, but the line doesn't go the entire length of the cuticlejust about halfway across the more horizontal part. It's really thin, less than a millimeter. Should I be concerned about this? Does it sound like something I need to get checked out?

Question

I'm a bit confused about a product I've been prescribed. It's called Konaz ZP, and I was told it should be used as a shampoo. But when I checked the label, it actually says it's a lotion. So now I'm unsure about how to properly use it. Could it be possible that there's a mix-up, or is this common? How should I go about using it as a shampoo, if it's labeled otherwise?

Question

I've been having this weird swelling on my forehead, almost like I bumped it or got bitten by an insect. It doesn't happen too often, maybe 2 or 3 times over the last couple of months, but it's been going on for about six months now. Can anyone help me figure out what it might be?
