I'm really worried about this itching issue on my leg. There was this small red patch at the start that was itching a lot, and now there's even some blood. We did see a doctor, but it doesnt seem to be getting any better. Can you help me figure out what to do for proper treatment?

I'm really confused about why my doctor prescribed desonide for my hair loss and dandruff issues. Can it actually help with hair regrowth, or is it just for treating the dandruff? I'm worried because I didn't expect this kind of treatment for hair problems. Could you help me understand how desonide fits into this?

I'm dealing with something really weird for almost a year now, the skin on my penis has been super dry. Every time I take a shower and try to clean it, the skin cracks open, which is really painful. I constantly have to put on Vaseline to stop it from drying out even more. Even the inside of the skin feels pretty dry. Any idea what's going on or what I should do?

This could be fungal infection u need to evaluate with your Dermatologist and get appropriate treatment with oral antifungal medications and topical lotions,once the infection is resolved your hair fall would come down,I suggest you not to use minoxidil with active fungal infection,above this your personal hygiene care is more important.
