I'm dealing with a persistent fungal infection on my face that's been bothering me for about a year. I was on itraconazole capsules from Dr. Reddy's and clotrimazole ointment for three months, and it seemed to clear up for a bit. But as soon as I finished the medication, it came back within a week. I'm an MBBS student at PIMS in Jalandhar, and I'm wondering if there are any injectable options available for this?

View allI've been dealing with telogen effluvium after recently having a fever, and I'm really worried about how long this might last. Can you give me an idea about the typical duration for this to go away? I'm just feeling a bit anxious about it.
Telogen effluvium after fever typically lasts for about 6 months. During this time, it is important to ensure you are getting adequate nutrition and managing stress levels to support hair regrowth. You can consider using minoxidil solution 2% to promote hair growth.

I'm experiencing this weird internal itch in my fingertips every morning during the winter. It's like scratching doesn't cut it, and I've found that warming them up in my armpits helps, but it's just a temporary fix. Is there a long-term solution or something I can do to get rid of this itchiness for good?
You may be experiencing symptoms of dry skin in the winter season. To help alleviate the itching in your fingertips, I recommend using a moisturizing cream or ointment regularly, especially after washing your hands. You can try using a product like Eucerin Advanced Repair Hand Cream or Aveeno Skin Relief Hand Cream. Additionally, wearing gloves when going outside in the cold weather can help protect your skin and prevent further dryness. If the itching persists, you can also try taking an over-the-counter antihistamine Claritin to help reduce the itchiness.
