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.

View allI'm really worried about my hair. It seems to fall out more quickly whenever I wash it, comb it, or even when I apply hair oil. What could be causing this, and how can I deal with it?
This could be due to various reasons such as stress, nutritional deficiencies, hormonal imbalances, or even certain medical conditions. To help reduce hair fall, you can try using minoxidil solution 5% twice daily on the scalp. Additionally, taking biotin tablets 10mg once daily can also help in improving hair health. Make sure to eat a balanced diet rich in vitamins and minerals, and try to manage stress through relaxation techniques or exercise. If the problem persists, it's best to consult a dermatologist for a proper evaluation and personalized treatment plan.
