I'm really struggling with a case of jock itch that's making my life pretty uncomfortable. It's all red and scaly and the itching is driving me nuts. I've tried so many over-the-counter options like Quadriderm and Triben Plus, but they only seem to work for a bit before the itch comes right back. Even the home remedies I've tried don't seem to help. What can I do to finally get rid of this?

how to use tea tree oil for acne

1. Combine 1 to 2 drops of tea tree oil with 12 drops of a carrier oil. However, be careful using any additional oils on your face. Any type of oil product has the potential to worsen acne. 2. Before applying diluted tea tree oil to your face, do a small patch test on the inside of your elbow. Signs of skin sensitivity or an allergic reaction include itchiness, redness, swelling, and burning. 3. Before applying the oil, wash your face with a gentle cleanser for acne-prone skin, and pat it dry. 4. Gently apply diluted tea tree oil by dabbing it on your blemishes with a cotton round or pad. 5. Allow to dry. Follow up with your usual moisturizer. 6. Repeat morning and night.

I'm really curious about how effective homeopathic medicine is for treating skin problems. I've also heard concerns that they might contain steroids. Can you shed some light on this? How can we be sure they're safe and what should I look out for?

There are certain records saying homeopathy medicine would work,and I suggest you to go with the seriousness of your issue if it is serious better option for allopathy, and for your reference homeopathy medicine do not contain steroids.

I've been using Tugain solution to help with my hair thickness. I'm thinking about switching to Indulekha hair oil. Do you think that's a good idea? Would it still be effective for hair thickness, or should I stick with Tugain? I'm a bit concerned about making a change like this. What would you recommend?

chemical free oils would work,consume balanced diet with extra protien for healthy hair.
