I'm looking for some advice on dealing with keloids. I've already tried the injections, but I haven't seen the results I was hoping for. Are there any scar removal creams that might help lighten the color of keloids? I'd really like to know if there's something that could work for me.

I'm using hand sanitizer to clean my earphones, and now I'm a bit worried. Are they safe to put in my ears? My ears have been really itchy lately. And should I be doing something different to disinfect my earphones safely?

Clean your ears gently using a damp cloth or cotton swabs if necessary, but avoid inserting anything deep into the ear canal.

I'm dealing with a persistent fungal infection that's been bothering me for about 4 years now and I'm also overweight. I've heard about a medication called Itaspor that might help with antifungal infections. Do you think it could be effective for my situation?

Itaspor (Itraconazole) is a well-established antifungal medication, effective against various fungal infections, including: 1. Dermatophyte infections (e.g., ringworm, athlete's foot) 2. Candidiasis (e.g., thrush, vaginal yeast infections) 3. Aspergillosis However, considering your 4-year history of fungal infections and being overweight, it's essential to consult a doctor to determine the best course of treatment. Factors to Consider 1. Type and severity of infection: Your doctor will assess the type of fungal infection and its severity to determine the most effective treatment. 2. Underlying health conditions: Being overweight can increase the risk of developing certain health conditions, such as diabetes, which can affect the immune system and fungal infection treatment. 3. Potential interactions with other medications: Your doctor will review your medication list to ensure that Itaspor doesn't interact with other medications you're taking. 4. Liver function: Itraconazole can affect liver function, so your doctor may monitor your liver enzymes during treatment.
