I'm really worried about dealing with scabies mites. I'm wondering if leaving clothes and bedding out in the sunlight for a day is a reliable way to kill them. Would that be enough?

Question

Is using homemade hair removal soap with barium sulphide safe? Are there any side effects I should be worried about, and does it actually remove hair or just break it off?

I've been having a really tough time with what I think is ringworm around my anus. They've got those classic round ring-like patterns, and it's been going on for around 2 months now. I've been using Terbinaforce cream and Kencel IT 100 tablets, but they haven't done much to help. The itching is so intense, and sometimes I scratch so much that my skin actually gets cut. I'm really not sure what to do next and could use some guidance. What do you recommend?

Question

I've been using Morr F 5 solution for a couple of months now for my hair loss, and I'm starting to see some good early results. However, I'm experiencing a lot of flakes, similar to dandruff, on my scalp. I'm pretty sure the alcohol in the solution is causing this. Do you know of any alternative treatments to Morr F that include both Finasteride and Minoxidil but dont have alcohol?
