I'm dealing with this really uncomfortable situation where my pubic hair has been itching a lot lately, and I noticed something white in that area, almost like dandruff. It's getting worse, and I'm worried it might be an infection. I'm not sure what steps to take next. Any advice?

View allI've got this swelling around my nose where I got it pierced and it's been bugging me a bit. I'm wondering if there's anything I can do to help it heal? And would it be a good idea to take out my nose ring and maybe use a tulsi stem on it for a bit? Any medication suggestions would be helpful too.

I'm only getting hives on my hands and feet. They start as small red dots and then spread out into a circle. It's super itchy, and even though I take antihistamines like cetrizine, they only give me temporary relief. Omnacortil works to clear them up, but I can't use it every day because of its side effects. What can I do about this?
To manage recurring hives on hands and feet, consider consulting a dermatologist or allergist to identify underlying causes, and explore alternative treatments like immunotherapy, sublingual immunotherapy, or medications like montelukast or cyclosporine, while also maintaining a symptom journal and avoiding potential triggers.

I'm using minoxidil as my doctor prescribed, and I'm thinking about dyeing my hair. Do you think applying hair dye will cause any issues while I'm on minoxidil?
When using minoxidil, it's essential to exercise caution when applying hair dye: _Wait period_: Avoid applying hair dye for at least 24 hours after using minoxidil. _Patch test_: Perform a patch test with the hair dye to ensure you're not allergic to it. _Choose gentle dyes_: Opt for ammonia-free or semi-permanent hair dyes, which are less harsh. _Avoid overlapping_: Don't apply minoxidil and hair dye to the same area simultaneously.
