Question

I'm really confused and worried right now. I've got this rash spreading all over my neck, hands, and entire face, and I'm not sure if it's a heat rash or chicken pox. It's a total mess, and I don't know what I should do next. Any advice on how I can figure this out?

Question

I'm a bit confused about using the Carel Solution. It contains coal tar topical solution USP and salicylic acid IP in an aqueous base, and I've been told to use it like a shampoo. Could you guide me on how exactly I should be applying it? I'm not sure if I'm supposed to use it differently than regular shampoo.

Question

I'm having this really annoying issue where my scrotum gets super itchy, especially at night. It's been happening for a few months now. The itchiness kind of eases up after I rub it, but it also seems to make it more prone to itching later on. What could be causing this, and should I be worried?
