I'm 26 and my skin is really dry. I've noticed some wrinkles and nasolabial folds appearing, which seem quite noticeable now. I want to avoid filler injections, so I'm looking for ways to improve my skin with just medicines and external treatments like oils, creams, and moisturizers. I already switched from soap to a Nivea body wash, and from using Clean & Clear facewash to an AHA facewash. Lately, I've been using Aquastop sunscreen. I'm also trying a lemon sugar scrub for my dry skin and wrinkles and then applying a thick layer of castor oil. I've been doing this for about five days. Am I on the right track with this routine? Are there any specific creams, moisturizers, or serums that could help make my skin look more radiant and address these issues?

I've been dealing with this itchy red rash that keeps appearing and disappearing, and I sometimes feel a pricking sensation in different parts of my body, especially on my back. On top of that, my tonsils seem to hurt a bit too. Could this be something serious, or is there anything I should be doing to help it?

It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of a condition called Urticaria, also known as hives. Hives are red, itchy welts or swellings on the skin that often come and go. The pricking sensation you are feeling in your body parts, especially in the back, could be due to the hives. The slight pain in your tonsils may be related to inflammation or infection. To help relieve your symptoms, you can take an antihistamine such as Cetirizine (brand name Zyrtec) 10mg once daily. Additionally, you can apply a soothing lotion like Calamine to the affected areas to help with the itching. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it is important to follow up with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I'm dealing with a pretty annoying fungal issue on both of my legs, and there's these big round rings. It's just redness, no itching at all, but I can't seem to get rid of them. I've been taking Fluka and Terbinafine, but I'm worried they aren't enough or maybe I'm missing something. Any idea what's going on or what else I should try?

It sounds like you may be dealing with a fungal infection known as ringworm. Fluka (Fluconazole) and Terbinafine are commonly used antifungal medications. In addition to these, you can also consider using an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole twice a day on the affected areas. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry, and wear loose-fitting clothing to help the medication work effectively.

I'm 23 and I've been dealing with a receding hairline and thinning hair. I've been taking Androanagen tablets daily for the past six months. Should I keep taking them? And what happens if I stop; will my hair fall get worse? I've noticed some improvement since I started them, but I'm kind of anxious about what could happen if I make any changes. Any advice?

Since you have noticed some improvement in your condition after starting Androanagen, it is advisable to continue taking it as prescribed by your healthcare provider. If you stop taking Androanagen abruptly, there is a possibility that your hair fall may increase again. It is important to follow your healthcare provider's recommendations regarding the duration of treatment with Androanagen to maintain the benefits you have observed.
