I'm a 30-year-old guy dealing with really bad hair fall, and my hair's looking super dull and dry. My doctor told me to use minoxidil 5%, but I keep getting these headaches whenever I apply it. Is there any way I can fix this or make the headaches stop?

View allI've been dealing with some pretty bad itching around my tailbone and the upper part of my buttocks for the past 10 days. I've tried using Calamine, and it gave me a bit of relief but hasnt really solved the issue. Im starting to wonder if it might be a fungal infection. Do you think using an antifungal cream like Livafin could help with this? I'm just trying to figure out whats going on and how to get some relief.
Itching in the tailbone and upper buttock crevices can indeed be a sign of a fungal infection, especially if it has not improved with calamine lotion. You can try using an antifungal cream like Livafin (Terbinafine) twice a day for about 2 weeks. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry, and wear loose-fitting clothing to help with the healing process.

I'm a 25-year-old woman dealing with sunburns, and I was prescribed kojivit cream, but it's causing some skin irritation. Could you recommend any other options for treating sunburns?
For sunburns, you can try using aloe vera gel which has soothing properties and can help with skin irritation. You can apply a thin layer of aloe vera gel on the affected area multiple times a day to help with sunburn relief.
