Question

I've been having a really annoying issue with my scalp lately. It's super itchy and flaky, and there's a bunch of hair falling out. On top of that, it's like I'm getting these grainy, salt-like particles on my scalp that itch as well. It's honestly driving me nuts because my scalp feels dirty just a day after I wash it. I've been using Head & Shoulders but it's not helping. What could be going on with my scalp? Any advice on how to fix this?

Question

I'm a bit worried about my skin. I've been using this cream for about 6 months, but I've started to notice my skin is getting really thin. Now I'm concerned about stopping it because I've heard there can be some scary side effects, like this thing they call permanent pig. Can you help me figure out the best way to stop using it without dealing with these side effects? I'm really looking for an alternative or anything that might help ease this transition.

Question

I'm having some trouble with hyperpigmentation and I'm wondering which product would be more effective for me. Should I use Dermadew Caloe lotion with aloe or would Dermadew Glow cream be better? I'm looking for something that can really help even out my skin tone.

Question

I've been dealing with a fungal infection on my palm, and it's really bothering me. I've tried taking Fluka 150, but it seems to just keep coming back. Can you suggest any remedies to help get rid of it for good?
