I'm experiencing some really uncomfortable skin issues. I've got these rashes that are making my skin itch like crazy, and it's become super red and even has black spots appearing. It's getting to the point where my skin feels like it's burning, and the irritation is quite unbearable. I'm really worried about what's going on. Could you please tell me what might be causing this and what I should do?

You may be experiencing an allergic reaction on your skin. To help alleviate your symptoms, you can take an antihistamine such as Cetirizine (10mg) once daily to reduce itching and redness. Additionally, you can apply a soothing cream like Calamine lotion to the affected areas to help with irritation. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please seek medical attention.

View allI'm really worried because I'm losing hair more on the right side of my head, especially around the temples, and my hairline is receding. The hair is super thin and comes out several times a day. I notice tiny hairs growing in the same area but they just won't get longer. My scalp gets itchy sometimes but there's no dandruff. Is there any chance I can recover some of my frontal hairline?
Losing hair on one side more than the other with thinning and hair fall can be a sign of male pattern baldness. To help with hair regrowth and prevent further hair loss, you can try using minoxidil solution 5% twice daily on the affected areas. Additionally, taking finasteride 1mg daily can also help in promoting hair regrowth and preventing hair loss. It is important to use these medications consistently for several months to see results. In some cases, a dermatologist may recommend steroid injections or PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) therapy to stimulate hair growth. Remember to consult with a healthcare professional before starting any new medication.

Why my hair is oily even after washed?
Shampooing too little or too often contributes to greasy hair , washing more than once a day can produce more oil to make up for extra shampooing

I'm really worried about the side effects of finax 1mg that I've been prescribed for my hair loss. Can you tell me just how much it might reduce my libido or even cause erectile dysfunction?
The side effects of finax 1mg (Finasteride) on libido and erectile dysfunction are uncommon. Less than 2% of men may experience a decrease in libido, and even fewer may experience erectile dysfunction. These side effects are usually reversible upon discontinuation of the medication. It is important to follow the prescribed dosage regimen to minimize the risk of experiencing these side effects.
