I had some fish earlier and then drank buttermilk about an hour later. Now, my dad mentioned that combining the two might lead to skin issues. I'm kind of worried since I already had the buttermilk. Is there something I can do to prevent any skin problems, or is there anything I should be on the lookout for?

There is no scientific evidence to suggest that simultaneous intake of milk and fish is harmful to the body or skin in any way.

I'm dealing with some dry and peeling skin on my scrotum, and it seems to be spreading. I've been using ketoconazole cream, but it isn't really helping. What could be going on here, and should I try a different treatment or see a doctor?

Lulican cream for local application for atleast 2 weeks is advised to the patient.

I'm really struggling with exfoliative cheilitis and it's causing a lot of damage to my lips. I've heard that surgery might be an option, but I'm not sure if there are any effective creams I should try first. Could you please let me know what might help?
