I'm dealing with an old cut scar on my left hand, and I'm really interested in figuring out how to remove it permanently. It's been there for 67 years and happened due to a cutter. Could you advise me on the best way to get rid of it?

I've been having a really hard time sleeping at night because of this super itchy problem. It's getting worse when I scratch, and now it seems to be spreading. Could you recommend a good medicine that might help cure it? I'm really concerned and looking for some guidance.

I can recommend you to take Benadryl (diphenhydramine) 25mg before bedtime to help with your itchy problem and improve your sleep. Additionally, you can apply hydrocortisone cream on the itchy areas to reduce the itching and prevent further spreading.

I'm a bit concerned about my health. I've had my vitamin D3 levels checked, and they seem fine, but I'm experiencing a white tongue. It tends to disappear when I eat but then comes back. I've also done some blood tests, and everything seems normal. What could be causing this? Should I be worried about the white tongue even though my tests are normal?
