Question

I've been dealing with a lot of itching and irritation, especially in my private area, and I've found that using prickly heat powder after a shower really helps. I'm wondering if it's safe to use it every day in that sensitive area or if it might cause any issues in the long run. Is this a normal practice, or should I be concerned about any side effects?

Question

I've been dealing with hair loss and went to see a dermatologist who prescribed some medications. I've been using two lotions - URTO and Racine - along with biotin and vitamin tablets for about 12 days now. However, instead of getting better, my hair loss seems to have tripled. Is it possible these medications aren't working for me, or is increased hair loss a normal part of the treatment process?

Question

I've been using Faiza beauty cream, and while it initially made my skin look better and fairer, I've started having issues since I stopped using it. Now my skin is having a bad reaction with lots of pimples appearing in a really concerning way. I'm really stressed about it and wondering if there's anything I can do to fix this mess. Any advice on how to replace this cream or what steps I should take to get my skin back on track would be super helpful.

Question

I've noticed these tiny black dots on my stomach and I'm really curious about what could be causing them. Should I be concerned? Can they be treated with just normal calamine lotion, or is it something that might need more specific medication?
