I'm really worried about a fungal infection I've had for the past year. I've tried medications from different doctors, but it's just spreading all over my body, causing itching and irritation. It's tough to get any mental relief from this infection. Can you help me find a permanent solution? I'm looking for a complete cure, not just a temporary fix. It's been going on for so long, and it's really affecting my life. Also, my wife is dealing with the same issue and she's pregnant. Could this infection impact our newborn? If so, what precautions should we take to protect the baby? I've already consulted 4 doctors and tried everything from English medicine to homeopathy, but nothing is working. We desperately need the best advice and treatment for fungal infections. Can you guide us on what to do next?

View allI've been noticing more grey hair lately and it's starting to worry me. Is there a particular reason this might be happening, and is it something I should be concerned about medically? What can I do to manage or potentially reverse it?
To address premature grey hair, consider a multi-faceted approach: maintain a balanced diet rich in vitamins B12, D, and E, copper, and iron; reduce stress through meditation, yoga, or deep breathing exercises; avoid excessive heat styling, smoking, and harsh chemical hair treatments; and explore natural remedies like amla oil, coconut oil, and henna, while consulting a dermatologist or trichologist for personalized guidance.

I've been dealing with these annoying acne-like bumps on my hips and the back of my thighs. They don't bother me all the time, but when they do, they can be really itchy and painful. After some Googling, I think it might be folliculitis. I'm already on Isotretinoin for the acne on my face, and my lipid and liver function tests are normal. Do you have any suggestions for an ointment or something that could help with this?
Candid cream for local application for 7 days, tab flucanozole 1 tablet once a week for 2 weeks is advised for your fungal infection.And for follicullitis u can take tablet Augmentin duo 625 mg thrice daily for 5 days lastly for acne Clinsol gel is advised to the patient for 3 weeks, if any side-effects kindly consult dermatologist.

I'm looking to try a Glutathione soap here in India and I'm curious about which brand you might recommend as the best. Also, I'm a bit concerned about whether there are any side effects I need to watch out for. My skin tends to be quite dry, so I'm also wondering if it's safe and suitable for someone with dry skin. Would love to hear your thoughts!
There are several popular Glutathione soaps available in India, such as Gluta-C Intense Whitening Soap, Belo Essentials Intensive Whitening Bar, and Kojie San Skin Lightening Soap. These soaps are known for their skin brightening and antioxidant properties. As for side effects, some people may experience mild irritation, dryness, or redness when using Glutathione soap. It is important to do a patch test before using it regularly to check for any allergic reactions. Dry-skinned individuals can still use Glutathione soap, but it is recommended to follow up with a moisturizer to prevent further dryness. Additionally, using a gentle and hydrating soap can help maintain skin moisture levels. Remember to use the soap as directed and discontinue use if you experience any adverse reactions.
