I'm having this skin itching around my leg area and sometimes it even feels like it's burning a bit. I've tried using itch guard and tetmosol total, but it seems to be getting worse instead of better. It all started in the summer. Could there be a reason why these symptoms keep increasing even with treatment? Any advice on what might help or if I should be checking for something specific?

I've been hearing a lot about using onion juice on the scalp to promote hair growth. I'm really curious if it actually works and how quickly it might show results. Is it safe to use, or are there any potential side effects I should be aware of? I'd love to know more about its effectiveness and any tips on how I might go about trying it.

Onion juice has been shown to promote hair growth due to its high sulfur content which helps improve blood circulation to the hair follicles. You can apply onion juice directly to the scalp and leave it on for about 30 minutes before washing it off. This can be done 1-2 times a week for best results.

I've been dealing with a lot of itching on my scalp and there's some pain too. My hair is still falling out even though I'm using folica hair tincture. Do you think it will help improve my condition or should I try something else? It's really worrying me.

If you are experiencing itching, pain, and hair loss on your scalp, using Folica hair tincture may help improve your condition. However, it is important to also address the underlying cause of your symptoms. I recommend using Folica hair tincture twice a day, applying it directly to the scalp and gently massaging it in. Additionally, you may consider using a medicated shampoo containing ketoconazole to help with the itching and inflammation. If your symptoms persist or worsen, it is advisable to consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and management.
