I'm having a bit of a tough time with ringworms right now. I used Allegra 120 mg and Terbinaforce tablets before, and it seemed to help, but I'm noticing they're coming back on my crotch area, hips, back, waist, and thighs. It starts as a small dot and then grows larger. Any idea why this might be happening again, and what else I can do to stop it from spreading?

I've been using Betnovate cream for about three years to help with pimples and ended up liking the way it lightened my skin tone. But every time I try to stop, by the second day my face gets itchy, breaks out, and the skin tone starts looking dull. I saw some advice online about gradually reducing how much and how often I use the cream, but I'm worried. What's the best way to safely stop using it? Is there anything else I can do to control the pimples and get my skin tone back to normal without itching?

It is important to gradually taper off the use of Betnovate cream to minimize withdrawal effects. You can start by reducing the frequency of application. For example, if you were using it twice a day, you can switch to once a day for a week, then every other day for another week, and so on. Additionally, you can consider using a milder steroid cream like hydrocortisone during the tapering process to help with any rebound effects. It is also important to focus on a good skincare routine to help maintain skin health during this transition period. Remember to consult with your healthcare provider for personalized advice and guidance on discontinuing the use of Betnovate cream.

I'm dealing with a dry penis and my family doctor mentioned using a lotion or cream that has vitamin E. Can anyone recommend a brand that's effective?

You can try using Eucerin Intensive Repair Lotion which contains vitamin E. Apply a thin layer on the affected area twice a day for best results.

I'm a 33-year-old woman and I've noticed a lot more grey hair lately. I have a 2-year-old and my grey hair issues started back in college, but it was minimal then. Now it feels like every short hair is grey and my longer hairs are grey just at the roots. I've been using Henna and indigo for coloring. Is there anything else I can do about my grey hair? Any advice would be appreciated.
