I'm dealing with a fungal infection for about 15 days now and have been using Surfaz SN ointment. It seems like it's getting better, but I still get that itchy feeling sometimes. Could you guide me on what to do next? Should I be taking any pills for this infection? If yes, can you suggest what kind?

Shampoo which contain active ingredients like pyrithione ,zinc, selenium sulfide, ketoconazole, salicylic acid, and coal tar can work to reduce dandruff. since there are many underlying reasons(as simple as stress) it is better to take an expert opinion first before using OTC shampoos

I'm really worried about my face after a chemical peel with cosmoderma 50. I've ended up with burns on both cheeks, and now I've got these brown patches and pinkish flesh showing. What should I do? Is this normal, and how can I help my skin heal?

Avoid using that cream and consult if symptoms persists

I'm 23 years old and still can't grow a beard or moustache. I've been waiting for years and nothing's happening. Can you give me some advice on what I should do about this?

It sounds like you may be experiencing a delay in facial hair growth. One possible solution is to use Minoxidil solution 5% twice daily on the areas where you want hair growth. Additionally, you can consider taking Biotin supplements 10,000 mcg daily to promote hair growth. Make sure to consult with a healthcare provider before starting any new medications or supplements.
