I'm dealing with this fungal infection on my scalp and it's showing up as patches everywhere. Can anyone recommend a good antifungal oil or shampoo that could help clear it up?

For fungal infection on the scalp, you can use Ketoconazole shampoo. You can apply it to the affected areas, leave it on for 5 minutes, and then rinse off. Use it twice a week for 2-4 weeks for best results.

View allI've been dealing with hair loss since 2015 and had been using minoxidil 5% for over a year. I stopped using it about 6 months ago but started again a month ago and I think the shedding phase is done. I saw a trichologist who recommended Xfolia hair gain serum and hairgain pills since I'm in a type 3 pattern. Have you heard of this Xfolia stuff? How long does it usually take to see results with this kind of treatment, because I couldn't find any info about it online?

I'm dealing with a really uncomfortable fungal infection on my scrotum. Its super painful, and I actually went through this same ordeal about a year ago. This time it's really red, sweaty, and has a painful liquid forming around it. What might be causing this to come back, and how can I get relief from it?
That needs to be treated ,as it is painful that might not be Fungal infection and could be folliculitis, visit Dermatologist for appropriate treatment.

I'm an 18-year-old and my hair is just so smooth and silky that it keeps falling out, and it's really hard to keep any hairstyle in place because of that. I'm really hoping to find some solutions to make my hair a bit rougher so I can actually style it the way I want. What can I do to get that kind of texture?
Consider using hair products containing ingredients like sea salt, texturizing sprays, or dry shampoo to add volume and texture, or try hairstyles that work with silky hair, such as braids, buns, or ponytails, and for a more permanent solution, consult a Dermatologist
