Question

I've been really struggling with some skin issues lately. My skin's been getting super oily, and I also have a sun tan that's not going away. On top of that, I'm losing hair, which is really concerning me. I've been taking Eslo 5 regularly. Could this possibly be affecting my hair and skin? I'm just trying to figure out what's going on and how I can fix it. Any advice would be appreciated!

Skin getting oily, sun tan, and hair fall can be due to various reasons. To address the oily skin, you can use a topical medication containing Adapalene and Benzoyl Peroxide gel once daily at night. For sun tan, you can use a sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher, apply it 20 minutes before sun exposure, and reapply every 2-3 hours. To manage hair fall, you can take Biotin supplements 10,000 mcg once daily. Since you are already taking Eslo 5, which contains Amlodipine for blood pressure management, it is important to continue it as prescribed by your doctor.

Question

I've been struggling with really bad body odor, and I'm feeling pretty self-conscious about it. It's like whenever I sweat, the smell becomes overwhelming, and even when I'm not sweating, my natural body smell just isn't pleasant. I'm starting to worry and wonder if there's anything I can do to improve this situation. Any advice would be highly appreciated.

Question

Is there really a chance to regrow hair with PRP treatment? Ive had one session already and I'm not noticing any difference. Should I be concerned, or is it too soon to expect results?

Question

I'm dealing with a really intense burning feeling between my upper thigh and groin area. There's no rash or redness, but I've already tried using clotrimazole powder and washed the area with Savlon, and it's not helping at all. This happened a few weeks ago too but went away after I applied the powder. Now it feels way more severe and there's barely any relief. What could be causing this, and what should I do about it?
