I'm dealing with HSV 1 and found out I'm IgG positive. Since I've had this infection before and it's now latent, could I still pass it on to someone else through oral contact even when I don't have active symptoms?

I've been dealing with some red spots or maybe an infection on my penis foreskin recently. I tried using a fourderm tube because a chemist recommended it, but it seems to only provide temporary relief. I'm really looking for some proper advice on what to do next. Could you help me understand what's going on?

I've been dealing with this itching on my inner thighs and buttocks for the last three months, and I've noticed the same rash on my left-hand wrist and both my right hand and leg joint. I've tried a bunch of antifungal creams and meds like flucan 150mg, cefadroxil 500mg, and Levosiz, and then switched to terbinafine tablets and cream. Been on these for three months now, but there's been no improvement. In fact, the redness got worse over the last four days. Could you help me figure out what's going on and how to get rid of this?

Given your persistent symptoms despite treatment, it's essential to reassess your condition. Here's a step-by-step plan:

I'm dealing with a bunch of short, frizzy hairs right at the top of my head. They're not little baby hairs, but more like thick, broken hairs, and they just wont seem to grow. I haven't used a straightener in ages because I'm worried about damaging them further. I've got thick, wavy hair, and now these frizzy hairs are making it impossible to wear my hair down without having to use a clip. I've tried everything: hot oil treatments, leave-in conditioners, deep conditioning treatments, and even growth serums, but nothing seems to work. What could possibly be causing this, and is there anything else I can try to get them to grow out or at least calm down? This is really embarrassing.
