Question

I've been noticing that every time I put oil on my hair, I end up with a headache and this heavy feeling in my head. I'm starting to wonder if I should just stop using oil altogether. Do you have any idea why this is happening or any suggestions on what I should do?

Question

I've been dealing with these little red spots on my back and neck for about a week now. They were super itchy when they first appeared last Saturday but arent itching anymore. However, they havent gone away, and I havent taken any medication. I'm really unsure about whats going on or what I should do next. Any insights?

Question

I'm really worried about my herpes infection. I just had an STD panel done and it showed Herpes IgM at 0.50 and IgG at 12.4, with HIV coming back negative. I keep having frequent recurrences of genital herpes and it's really stressing me out. Can you help me understand what's going on and how I can manage or cure this infection? Im willing to try anything.

Question

I've been noticing this white powder under my nails whenever I scrape my scalp. It's not itchy, and I don't see flakes or dandruff. I shower daily, so I'm quite clean. The powder is a bit waxy. Is this just sebum, or could it be something unusual? Is this normal for scalp skin and only becomes visible after scraping?
