I'm dealing with this really annoying skin thing that seems like ring guard or something similar. It's causing a lot of itching and burning sensations. Do you have any ideas on what kind of medication might help with this?

This could be fungal infection u need to evaluate with your Dermatologist and get appropriate treatment with oral antifungal medications and topical lotions,once the infection is resolved your hair fall would come down,I suggest you not to use minoxidil with active fungal infection,above this your personal hygiene care is more important.

I've got some blade cut marks on my hands that have been there for about 3 months now. I'm really hoping to get rid of these scars but I'm wondering if there's an alternative to laser treatment. Any advice on what else might work?

For older scars like yours, besides laser treatment, you can consider using topical silicone gel sheets or silicone gel. These can help improve the appearance of the scar over time. Make sure to apply them as directed by the manufacturer. Additionally, you can also try using vitamin E oil or creams containing onion extract to help reduce the visibility of the scar. Remember to keep the area well moisturized and protected from the sun to aid in the healing process.

I've been dealing with a burn I got about four months ago, and the doctors mentioned it was a first-degree burn. The healing process went alright, but now Im stuck with this nasty scar on my arm that's really bothering me. The skin in that area doesnt seem to have an even tone, and the outer layer is darker. Could you suggest any products to help even out the skin tone and possibly recommend a good scar cream? I'm just looking for some guidance here.
