I'm 22 and have always had short and thin hair, just like my mom and grandma. I really want to make my hair thicker and longer. Can you tell me how long it might take for it to grow out? I'm also open to coming by your hospital for a visit.

I'm dealing with melasma and pigmentation on my nose and skin, and I've tried tons of English medicines but haven't seen any results. I'm really interested in trying something new, but I'm curious about how long it might take to fully clear up this issue. Can you give me some guidance on that?

I'm dealing with a persistent jock itch and the whole thing is really frustrating. I first tried using Candid Dusting powder, which helped for a bit, but the itch just kept coming back. Then I went for an antifungal cream called Clobiprop NM, and while it reduced the rashes, they returned as soon as I stopped the cream. I've also tried a stronger cream, Clop GM, which seemed to reduce the rash and itch at first, but now my skin has turned white and its painful and itching again. Could you suggest what might be a good treatment or medication for this?

I've been struggling with what I think is jock itch for over a year and a half. I've tried all sorts of oral meds and creams, and while the redness has cleared up, my entire groin, buttocks, and underarms have turned really dark. Plus, they itch sometimes. What can I do about this? Any advice would be really appreciated.
