I'm really struggling and could use some advice. I've been taking fexofenadine for about three years, but I recently stopped. Now, I'm dealing with this intense itching all over my body, and it feels unbearable. I think it's from the withdrawal of stopping the medication. What can I do to relieve this itching? Any immediate suggestions or steps I should take?

View allI'm a bit concerned about my hair fall situation. I've completed three PRP sessions over the past three months, with each session spaced a month apart. After the second session, I saw some improvement in hair fall, but it only lasted for about a week. Since then, it's back to the usual amount of hair falling. Is this normal, or is there something else I should be doing? I've been advised to use minoxidil 5, but I have to admit, I'm not very consistent with itmaybe around three to four times a week. Should I be looking into any vitamin deficiencies or consider trying some home remedies or self-care routines?
Yes consume protiene rich diet and maintain healthy sleep cycle that will help and also follow your doctors advice

I've been dealing with a fungal infection on my penis for a few months now. I saw my GP and they gave me Daktarin cream, which really helped with the symptoms. But now I've run out and I'm noticing the dry skin coming back. I got prescribed Daktacort cream this time, but it says not to use it on the genital area. Is it actually safe to use there? Also, since it's just mild dry skin at this point, could using shea butter as a moisturizer be a good idea?
Daktacort cream contains an antifungal (miconazole) and a mild corticosteroid (hydrocortisone) which can be effective for fungal infections. However, it is not recommended for use on the genital region due to the presence of the corticosteroid which can cause thinning of the skin in that area. It is best to consult your healthcare provider for an alternative treatment for your genital fungal infection. As for using shea butter as a moisturizer for mild dry skin, it can be a good option as shea butter is known for its moisturizing properties.

Is there any way to treat or manage macular amyloidosis? I've seen quite a few dermatologists, but they all told me there's no cure, and the medications they gave me didn't seem to help. Could you provide any insight or advice on this?
Unfortunately, there is currently no definitive cure for macular amyloidosis. However, topical treatments such as Tacrolimus ointment can help improve the appearance of the affected skin. You can apply Tacrolimus ointment twice daily to the affected areas as prescribed by your dermatologist. Additionally, phototherapy with Narrowband UVB light may also be beneficial in some cases. It is important to follow your dermatologist's recommendations for the best management of macular amyloidosis.
