I'm really concerned about my hair fall. It started a couple of years ago but wasn't too bad, so I ignored it. However, since I moved to a new place and started using ground water, I've noticed a lot more hair falling out than before. Are there any precautions or steps I should take to address this issue? Any advice would be appreciated.

I'm on Sebifine 250mg for about a week now and need to continue it for the next two weeks. I'm wondering if it's okay to get the COVID vaccine, either Covishield or Covaxin, during this treatment. Is there any interaction I should worry about, or is it safe to proceed with the vaccination?

I'm struggling with persistent irritation and itchiness in my groin area, especially after long drives in hot and humid conditions. Initially, keeping the area dry and using Candid Clotrimazole powder would help, but now it seems to have become a recurring issue. The skin's darker with some scaling, and the itchiness and burning sensation return if I skip a bath or don't use the powder every 12 hours. I'm wearing loose clothing and trying to keep the area as dry as possible, but I'm not seeing any permanent relief. What can I do to completely get rid of this problem?

That could be fungal infection which needs both oral and topical antifungal medications and personal hygiene is more important for such condition.

Im really concerned about my hair and scalp. I've been struggling with this intense itchiness and there are bumps on my scalp. Its so embarrassing because people give me disgusted looks whenever I'm out. Ive seen two different doctors, and they say they can't see anything, but clearly something is going on. There seems to be something on my hair and body that looks like dust particles when I brush my hair. What could this be? Could you please help me understand whats happening?

Minoxidil 5. for local application ,once daily for 3-6 weeks is advised, tab finasteride 5 mg once daily for 3-6 weeks is advised to the patient.
