I'm really curious about using barium sulfate soap for hair removal at home. Is it safe for the skin? I'd love to hear your thoughts on it.

Using barium sulfate soap for hair removal at home is not safe for the skin. It can cause irritation, dryness, and even chemical burns. I recommend avoiding its use and opting for safer hair removal methods such as shaving, waxing, or using depilatory creams."

I'm dealing with a really uncomfortable situation where I've got this infection in my pubic area and nearby thighs. It's turned the skin black and the itching is seriously bad. Do you think it could be some kind of fungal infection or is it something else? I'm pretty concerned and would love some advice.
This could be fungal infection u need to evaluate with your Dermatologist and get appropriate treatment with oral antifungal medications and topical lotions,once the infection is resolved your hair fall would come down,I suggest you not to use minoxidil with active fungal infection,above this your personal hygiene care is more important.

I'm really worried about a mole on my forehead near my eyebrows. It's been inflamed, and there's a red area around it. I've noticed pus coming out, and even though I've squeezed it a couple of times, the pus just keeps coming back. I've tried using tea tree oil and medications like nicotinamide and clindamycin, but nothing seems to be helping. Could there be a chance it's something serious, possibly cancerous?
That needs Physical examination,visit Dermatologist for evaluation and appropriate management
