I'm experiencing some itching inside my penis, right from where it begins. It's really uncomfortable and makes me want to masturbate just to get some relief, but the itch doesn't go away. There's no burning when I pee, just this persistent itch. What could be causing this, and how can I make it stop?

This itching sensation inside the penis could be due to a fungal infection. You can try using an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole 1% cream. Apply a thin layer of the cream on the affected area twice a day for about 2 weeks. Additionally, you can take an oral antifungal medication like Fluconazole 150mg as a single dose. Make sure to maintain good hygiene and avoid any irritants that may worsen the itching. If the symptoms persist, it is advisable to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

I'm really worried because I'm experiencing significant hair fall and dandruff, and I'm not sure what to do about it. I've also noticed that some strands have turned white. I've heard about Livon hair tonic being helpful, but I'm not entirely sure if it's the right choice. Could you please guide me on how to stop the hair fall and possibly regrow my hair?
