Question

I'm looking for an ointment to treat jock itch but I really need one without menthol or any cooling agents. I've tried some before that had those and it wasn't a pleasant experience. Do you have any good recommendations?

You can try using Clotrimazole cream, which is effective in treating jock itch. Apply a thin layer of Clotrimazole cream to the affected area twice a day for 2-4 weeks.

Question

I'm really worried about my hair and how it might be affected by my habits. I started masturbating when I was 13 and I do it quite often, sometimes even three times a day. I've noticed my hairline is starting to recede on the sides, and I'm also experiencing a bit of back pain. I'm eager to stop this behavior and I'm wondering if it's possible for my hair to grow back. Can you help me understand what's going on and how I might address it?
