Question

I'm really struggling with a super itchy scalp. I used Nizral shampoo hoping it would help, but the itching just got worse after washing my hair with it. Could you give me some advice on how to get rid of this itching?

Question

I've been experiencing this really strange itching all over my body, like on my chest, hands, neck, back, and shoulders. The thing is, these marks just show up on my skin like scratch marks, but I swear I didn't scratch myself. It's kind of weird because after some time, they just disappear when the itching stops. I'm starting to get worried about what this could be. Do you have any idea what's going on?

Question
