I've noticed that there's a spot in my mustache where the hair just isn't growing, even though the hair is there and surrounding areas are growing fine. Is this something I should be worried about? Could it be a disease, and do you think it'll start growing again on its own or do I need to look into some medicine?

I'm dealing with a skin fungal infection, and it's been really itchy lately, especially at night. I was thinking about using Cloben G cream, but I'm not sure if it's the right choice or if it's a steroid. Could you recommend a good topical antifungal cream? I could really use your advice because it's getting tough to sleep with all the itching.

Clotrimazole is an antifungal medication, while Beclomethasone is a corticosteroid. It is not recommended to use steroid-containing creams for fungal infections without a doctor's prescription, as they can sometimes worsen the infection or cause other side effects. For fungal infections on the skin and private parts, I recommend using Terbinafine cream. You can apply Terbinafine cream twice a day on the affected areas. It is a potent antifungal medication that can help relieve itching and treat the fungal infection effectively. Remember to keep the affected areas clean and dry, and avoid tight clothing to promote healing.

My son's nails haven't been growing at all, in both his hands and feet, for the past five years. I'm really concerned about what kind of problems this could cause. Is there any treatment that could help his nails start growing again?

Nail growth arrest for 5 years may indicate an underlying condition, such as hypothyroidism, anemia, nutritional deficiencies (biotin, vitamin B12, or iron), skin conditions (psoriasis, eczema), or genetic disorders (nail-patella syndrome); potential complications include increased risk of fungal or bacterial infections, nail bed inflammation, or secondary infections; consult a pediatrician or dermatologist for a thorough evaluation
