I'm curious about using alum for treating yeast infections. I've read about applying water and alum together, but I'm not sure how effective it is or if there are any risks involved. Could you provide some insights into whether this is a safe and useful method?

I've been dealing with scabies, and the itching is driving me insane. It's pretty much everywhere on my body. What can I do to ease this itching? It's becoming unbearable.
I'm sorry to hear you're dealing with scabies; I understand how uncomfortable and frustrating the itching can be. It's important to get treatment as soon as possible, typically with prescribed creams or oral medication, to eliminate the mites and soothe the irritation.

I'm noticing these little purple dots on my chin, almost like a bruise, but I haven't been hit or anything. Do you have any idea what might be causing this? Should I be concerned?
It sounds like you may be experiencing petechiae, which are tiny purple, red, or brown spots on the skin. Petechiae can be caused by various factors such as straining, coughing, or even certain medications. However, it is important to rule out any underlying medical conditions that may be causing this. I recommend you consult with a healthcare professional to determine the exact cause and appropriate treatment.
