I'm really frustrated because I've got a ton of ringworms all over my body. I've already tried so many creams like sapat lotion, KT5, dermring guard, panderm, triben, and itch guard, but nothing has helped. It's driving me insane because I can't stop itching the whole day. I'm desperately looking for an immediate home treatment for this. What can I do to finally get rid of them?

For immediate relief, you can try using Terbinafine cream (brand name Lamisil) twice a day on the affected areas. Additionally, taking oral antifungal medication like Fluconazole (brand name Diflucan) can help clear up the infection from within. Make sure to keep the affected areas clean and dry, and avoid sharing personal items to prevent spreading the infection.

View allI've been noticing dark circles around my eyes and it's really bothering me. I'm curious if there are any treatments or specific creams that can help reduce or remove them. Are there particular methods or facial products that work best for this issue?
Dark circles around the eyes can be caused by various factors such as lack of sleep, dehydration, allergies, or genetics. To help reduce the appearance of dark circles, you can try using an eye cream containing ingredients like vitamin C, retinol, or hyaluronic acid. Some popular brands include Cetaphil Hydrating Eye Gel-Cream or Neutrogena Rapid Wrinkle Repair Eye Cream. Apply a small amount of the cream gently around the eyes twice a day, in the morning and evening, for best results. Additionally, make sure to stay hydrated, get enough sleep, and manage any allergies to help improve the appearance of dark circles.

I've noticed tiny black specks or dots on my skin over the last three weeks, even after I wipe. They're really small but keep appearing. Should I be worried about this?

I'm dealing with hair fall because of seborrheic dermatitis, and I'm wondering if my hair will grow back naturally once the infection gets better. Do I need to worry about getting some sort of treatment like a transplant or taking medication, or can I expect my hair to regrow on its own? If it does grow back naturally, how long would that usually take? Id really appreciate your honest advice.
Hair fall due to seborrheic dermatitis can improve once the infection is treated. You may not necessarily need procedural treatments like transplants. Medications such as ketoconazole shampoo can help manage seborrheic dermatitis and promote hair regrowth. It may take several weeks to a few months for hair to regrow after the infection has been treated effectively.
