View allI'm curious about something I've heard for my husband's hair. Someone mentioned using Morr F5 for hair regrowth, and I'm wondering if it could also help reduce hair fall. Is it mainly just for hair growth, or does it help with both?
Continue same treatment.

I'm struggling with persistent irritation and itchiness in my groin area, especially after long drives in hot and humid conditions. Initially, keeping the area dry and using Candid Clotrimazole powder would help, but now it seems to have become a recurring issue. The skin's darker with some scaling, and the itchiness and burning sensation return if I skip a bath or don't use the powder every 12 hours. I'm wearing loose clothing and trying to keep the area as dry as possible, but I'm not seeing any permanent relief. What can I do to completely get rid of this problem?
That could be fungal infection which needs both oral and topical antifungal medications and personal hygiene is more important for such condition.

I'm 34 and have had dermatitis for about 15 years. Over the years, I've seen quite a few dermatologists and gotten different treatments, but they only seem to give me temporary relief. I've noticed that every time I get my IgE levels checked, they're always above 5000. I'm starting to worry about what this could mean for my health in the long run. Could these high IgE levels affect my other organs or lead to other diseases?
yes u can use it, visit ur physician for apprpropriate managent
