To overcome hair fall problem, you can try using minoxidil solution applied directly on the scalp. Additionally, you can take biotin supplements 10,000 mcg once daily to promote hair growth. Make sure to eat a balanced diet rich in vitamins and minerals, and avoid using harsh chemicals on your hair. Regular scalp massages can also help improve blood circulation to the hair follicles.

Question

I'm dealing with a really persistent fungal infection in my groin for the last couple of months. At first, I tried using fourderm cream, but it just made my skin lose color in that area. So, I went to a general physician who told me to stop that and start taking GRISOREM 250 twice a day. The itching hasn't gotten worse, but it hasn't really improved either, and now the infection is spreading. It's even reached my right armpit, and wearing jeans is becoming really uncomfortable. The skin in the groin area feels super sensitive, and the itchiness is pretty unbearable. There's a female dermatologist close by, but I'm kind of worried it'll be awkward because the problem is in my groin area. Seeing a male doctor would feel even more awkward. Is it a good idea to visit her? Or could I get a prescription through private chat? I've got pictures of the infection if that helps one shows how it looked after using fourderm, and the other is from today.

Question

I'm really worried about my left leg's thumb. My nail had come off completely before, and now that it's grown back, it's digging into my skin from both sides and causing a lot of pain. I can't even bear to touch the area around it. What should I do about this?

Question

I'm really worried about my sister. She's currently 22 weeks and 4 days pregnant and recently had a viral fever. The fever's gone now, but she's experiencing some intense itching all over her body. The doctor mentioned it's a post-viral symptom, but she's been taking LCZ and using lacto calamine without any relief. What are some quick solutions or remedies she can try to ease the itching?
