Question 1

I've been dealing with this persistent jock and anal itch for the past month and it's really getting to me. I've kept up with good hygiene, like bathing twice a day and changing my underwear daily. I've also tried some home remedies and even used ring guard, but nothing seems to help. What could be causing this, and is there anything else I should try?

Accepted Answer

That could be fungal infection which needs both oral and topical antifungal medications and personal hygiene is more important for such condition.

Question 2

I've been losing hair from the root, and I notice a black bulb at the end. This has been happening for about 56 months, and Im averaging around 55 hairs falling daily, mostly when I rinse my hair. Sometimes, my scalp feels a bit irritated. This is new for me because I didn't have hair loss issues before, and no one in my family has experienced baldness before 60. What could be causing this, and what should I do about it?

Accepted Answer

Based on your description, it sounds like you may be experiencing telogen effluvium, which is a form of temporary hair loss that usually occurs after a stressful event. To help with hair loss and promote hair growth, you can try using minoxidil solution 5% once daily on the scalp. Additionally, taking biotin supplements 10,000 mcg daily can also help improve hair health. Make sure to eat a balanced diet rich in vitamins and minerals, and avoid using harsh chemicals on your hair. If the symptoms persist, consider consulting a dermatologist for further evaluation and management.

Question 3

I'm really worried about some skin issues I've been facing. I tried using apple cider vinegar, tea tree oil, and multani mitti on a few spots on my face. I left it on for about 20 minutes and washed it off. But then, those areas turned frosted and by the next morning, they started to look brown. I made the mistake of trying to peel them off and now it feels like it's burning a lot, with pinkish skin showing underneath. I'm really concerned about scarring. I'm currently using hydrocortisone 1 cream and keeping the areas moisturized, but I'm not sure what else I should do. How long will it take for my skin to heal and return to normal? Any advice or precautions would be really appreciated.

Accepted Answer

Discontinue the use of harsh products.
Moisturize and hydrate the skin using gentle products.
Use hydrocortisone cream sparingly for inflammation, but do not overuse.
Avoid picking, scratching, or peeling the skin.
Protect the area from the sun and ensure proper healing.
With proper care, the skin should heal within 1-2 weeks for mild burns, but more severe cases may take longer. Please continue to monitor the healing process, and if the situation does not improve or worsens, consider seeing a dermatologist.
