I'm dealing with a rash or maybe a fungal infection on my inner thighs close to my genitals, and it's causing a lot of itching. I've been using itchguard for the past four days, but I'm still worried. Do you have any advice on what else I should do?

I'm a 20-year-old guy and I've been dealing with hair thinning for about 10 months now. My hair used to be super thick, dense, and even wavy at 11 inches long. It started thinning at the whorl and spread in a whirpool direction across the top, front, and the sides. In the last 3 months, I've noticed noticeable thinning at my crown and the back of my head too. I did get a buzz cut 5 months ago, and my temples have receded just a bit, maybe a centimeter. My scalp was super dry and tight a while ago but that seems to be back to normal now. I've always had dandruff, those small white flakes, mostly during the winters. Looking at my family history, both grandfathers had no hair loss until the end. My dads at a Norwood 2, two uncles are bald, probably due to diabetes, and one has a full head of hair. On my moms side, two uncles are bald and two have no hair loss. I'm concerned because I've lost a lot of hair density in these 10 months, it's probably half what I had before. Any advice on whats happening or what I should do? I've got some photos attached if that helps.

I might have chlamydia or hemorrhoids because I've noticed a lump near my anus. There's also a cluster of acne-like bumps without any pus, almost like muscle growth. I'm really worried. Can you help me figure out what's going on?

It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of hemorrhoids, which are swollen veins in the rectum and anus that can cause discomfort and a lump near the anus. To help with the symptoms, you can try using over-the-counter medications such as Preparation H (hydrocortisone) cream to reduce swelling and discomfort. It is important to keep the area clean and dry, and to avoid straining during bowel movements. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and treatment.

I've been using mintop 10 for a couple of months, but lately, like over the last 10 days, my hair fall seems to have increased. Should I keep using it or is it better to stop? Can you give me some advice on what to do?
