I'm really struggling here. I've been dealing with multiple ringworms for about five months now, and it's been so frustrating. I was taking It mac 200, and it seemed to work at first, but as soon as I stopped, the ringworms came right back, and I've noticed my skin has gotten darker in those areas too. Is there something I can do to get rid of them for good? I'm really just looking for a permanent solution.

View allIs minoxidil something that's a permanent fix for hair loss, or does it only work while you're using it? I'm a bit concerned about having to apply it indefinitely. Plus, I've been wondering if yoga might help with male pattern baldness. If it does, how long should I stick with it to see any results? By the way, I've noticed Dr. M.K Aggarwal tends to give the same advice for hair loss issues, so I'm hoping for a fresh perspective.
Minoxidil is not a permanent cure for male pattern baldness. It is effective in promoting hair growth as long as it is being applied regularly. One popular brand of minoxidil is Rogaine. Yoga alone is not a proven cure for male pattern baldness. While stress reduction techniques like yoga may help improve overall health and potentially reduce hair loss caused by stress, it is not a guaranteed cure for male pattern baldness. It is recommended to continue practicing yoga as part of a healthy lifestyle. For male pattern baldness treatment, you can consider using minoxidil as mentioned earlier.

I've been dealing with this persistent skin allergy that causes swelling all over my body. My doctor mentioned it might be due to seafood, but the allergy hasn't stopped. I've been on Allegra 120mg for the last four months, but the moment I miss even a single dose, the allergy flares up again. I'm worried about the long-term side effects of taking this medication. Is there any advice or a different solution you can suggest?
It seems like you are experiencing a persistent allergic reaction despite taking Allegra (Fexofenadine) 120mg daily. In such cases, you may benefit from a different class of antihistamines such as Cetirizine (Zyrtec) 10mg once daily or Loratadine (Claritin) 10mg once daily. Additionally, you can consider adding a mast cell stabilizer like Cromolyn sodium (Nasalcrom) to prevent the release of histamine in your body. It is important to consult with your doctor before making any changes to your medication regimen.

I'm a 25-year-old guy, and I've noticed that around 10 or 15 of my underarm hairs on one side have turned white all of a sudden. Is this something I should be worried about? It seems really strange to me. Why did only a few hairs change color, and why on just one side? Could there be an underlying reason for this?
