Question

I've been dealing with itching and rashes in my private area for about a month now, and it's getting really bothersome. Because of the lockdown, I haven't been able to see a doctor. Is there anything I can do to help with this at home, or should I be worried about something more serious?

Itchiness and rashes in the private area for a month can be due to a fungal infection. You can try using an over-the-counter antifungal cream like Clotrimazole 1% cream. Apply it twice a day for 2 weeks. Keep the area clean and dry. If there is no improvement or if it worsens, please consult a doctor for further evaluation and management.

I'm really struggling with my oily, acne-prone skin. Not only do I get breakouts, but once the acne clears up, it leaves scars that really bother me. I'd appreciate any advice on how I can effectively clear up my acne and reduce these scars. Any tips or treatments youd recommend?

Question

I've been dealing with pimples on my face and body, and I've heard doctors refer to it as acne. For the past two weeks, Ive been taking Hamdard Safi, and it looks like it's helping clear up my acne. However, I'm concerned because Ive read and heard from some folks, including a few doctors, that Safi might have a lot of arsenic, which could be bad for your body, especially your kidneys. Can you shed some light on whether it's actually safe to keep taking Safi?
