I'm feeling really uncomfortable with a red, burning sensation on my skin after shaving my pubic hair around the testicle area. I think I might have scratched myself. What should I do about this irritation and is there a way to soothe it? Im a bit worried about it getting worse.

I've been having some trouble with itching and dryness around the pubic area for the last few days. I tried washing with Dettol and used Vaseline petroleum jelly and coconut oil, which helped a bit, but the sides where the panties sit still hurt like they would if they were too tight. The pain has gone down now, but the dryness and a little bit of itching are still there. What should I do to get rid of this?

For relief from itching, dryness, and discomfort in the pubic area, continue maintaining good hygiene, and consider applying a fragrance-free, hypoallergenic moisturizer or a cream containing urea or hyaluronic acid to soothe and lock in moisture; additionally, wear breathable, loose-fitting clothing, avoid tight-fitting panties, and refrain from using harsh soaps or douching, as these can exacerbate dryness and irritation.

Can I use folliserum for my eyebrows? I've noticed that the hair on one side is kind of superficial. I'm wondering if folliserum would be a good option for this. Any advice would be appreciated!

Folliserum is a topical solution containing minoxidil, which is commonly used to promote hair growth. It can be used for eyebrows as well. You can apply a small amount of Folliserum on the sparse areas of your eyebrow once daily. Make sure to wash your face before applying and allow it to dry before applying the solution.

I've got these three rash spots near my genitals, like right on my thigh. They're ring-shaped, different sizes, and super itchy. I'm worried they might not just be a skin irritation. Could it be something like a fungal infection or something else I need to get checked out? What do you think?
