I'm losing my hair a lot and it's really freaking me out. Plus, I've got this constant itching on my scalp and I have no clue what's causing it. Can you help me figure out what's going on and suggest something for the itching and hair loss? I'm really worried.

Hair loss and itching on the scalp can be due to various reasons such as fungal infections, dandruff, or even stress. To address the itching on your head, you can use a medicated shampoo containing ketoconazole or selenium sulfide. One popular brand is Nizoral shampoo, which you can use twice a week. For hair fall, you can try using minoxidil solution such as Rogaine. Apply 1 ml of Rogaine solution twice daily on the scalp where hair loss is occurring. Additionally, make sure to eat a balanced diet rich in vitamins and minerals to support hair growth

I'm really struggling with hair fall, and my hair has gotten so thin because of it. Are there any shampoos or oils you could recommend that might help? I've noticed that the hair on my forehead is getting sparser on both sides. I've even tried treatments from doctors, but they only seem to work while I'm taking the tablets. For hair regrowth, they suggested Himalaya Hairzone Hairfall solution, but I haven't seen any results. What can I do to stop the hair fall and help my hair grow back thicker?

My sister thinks she might have a skin tag around her anal area. How can we be sure that's what it is? Does she really need to have it removed, or is it okay to leave it alone?

I'm dealing with a really stubborn fungal infection that I've had for over 4 months now. Initially, I thought it was just a rash that would disappear on its own, but it resembled ringworm and has all spread over the lower parts of my bum. The itching is unbearable. Around 2 months ago, I noticed a ringworm on my stomachit was small at first but now it's grown quite a bit and started spreading. I'm also seeing new ones popping up near my genital area. I'm really worried about this and need some guidance on what to do. I've started using Cosvate GM because a friend who had a similar issue suggested itis this safe to use for my condition?
