I'm dealing with a skin infection in my groin area and it's been going on for 20 to 25 days now. The skin on my inner thigh, right below the scrotum, has a foul smell and there's a blackish discoloration around it. Plus, I notice this thin, white, milky layer over the infected spot. Whenever I wear tight clothes, I get a burning feeling on a small part of the skin when I walk. I've been using clotrimazole, but it's not really helping. Could you give me some advice on what else I can do?

My wife's hair is falling out really fast, and I'm getting pretty worried. She had typhoid back in MayI'm not sure if that could be linked to her hair loss? A doctor told us to try a sulphate-free shampoo, but it doesn't seem to be making any difference. Any idea what we should do next?

I've noticed this dark black spot on my nose that started about two months ago, and it's beginning to spread. I've already seen a doctor who prescribed some ointment, soap, and tablets, plus I've been applying aloe vera. I'm really eager to know if there's anything else I could try to speed up the healing process. Any suggestions?

I'm worried about taking Curlzfin 1mg because I've been having hair fall issues. I read about all the side effects and I'm really concerned. Plus, if I stop taking it, will the hair that's grown just fall out again? Could you please let me know if there are any long-term risks or if there's an alternative treatment?

No need to worry you are using very low dose of it,consume it and follow your doctors advice
