I'm really worried about losing cheek fat, and it's been happening for the past five years. I had really bad acne vulgaris and, after two years of treatment, I've managed to get it under control. But now, I've noticed a big loss in my cheek fat. Is there anything I can do to get it back? I've heard about fat injections but don't know much about them. Can you explain how they work, how much they might cost, and any pros and cons?

View allI'm dealing with some serious itching in my butt crack, and it's driving me crazy. Living in Mumbai, the humidity makes me sweat a lot, especially down there. I also have thick body hair, which doesnt help. Even touching it lightly causes a painful burning feeling. Any advice on what could help?
I recommend using an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole (brand name Canesten) twice a day in the affected area. Keep the area clean and dry, and wear loose cotton underwear to allow for better air circulation. Additionally, you can take an oral antihistamine like Cetirizine (brand name Zyrtec) to help with the itching. If the symptoms persist, consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and management.

I'm a 20-year-old guy and I've been dealing with hair thinning for about 10 months now. My hair used to be super thick, dense, and even wavy at 11 inches long. It started thinning at the whorl and spread in a whirpool direction across the top, front, and the sides. In the last 3 months, I've noticed noticeable thinning at my crown and the back of my head too. I did get a buzz cut 5 months ago, and my temples have receded just a bit, maybe a centimeter. My scalp was super dry and tight a while ago but that seems to be back to normal now. I've always had dandruff, those small white flakes, mostly during the winters. Looking at my family history, both grandfathers had no hair loss until the end. My dads at a Norwood 2, two uncles are bald, probably due to diabetes, and one has a full head of hair. On my moms side, two uncles are bald and two have no hair loss. I'm concerned because I've lost a lot of hair density in these 10 months, it's probably half what I had before. Any advice on whats happening or what I should do? I've got some photos attached if that helps.
