I'm really worried about losing so much hair every time I apply oil or shampoo. I don't even do an oil massage, just a light application, and I always dilute my shampoo in water. I've tried a bunch of different shampoos, but nothing seems to work. Am I doing something wrong? Is it necessary to do an oil massage? My scalp is super oily, and my hair gets greasy just after two days. Should I keep using oil anyway?

Since you have an extremely oily scalp and experience greasiness within 2 days, you can opt for a clarifying shampoo like "Sebamed Anti-Dandruff Shampoo" to help control oiliness and maintain scalp health. It is not necessary to apply oil if it worsens your scalp condition, but if you still prefer to use oil, choose a non-greasy formula and apply it sparingly to the ends of your hair rather than the scalp

View allI've noticed that the skin around my penis and testicles has turned red and it's really itchy. It seems like there's some kind of sticky liquid discharge too. I've never been sexually active, so I'm unsure about what's happening. Could this be an infection or something else, and what should I do about it?
Use an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole 1% twice a day on the affected area for 1-2 weeks. Keep the area clean and dry, and avoid wearing tight clothing. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

I'm experiencing this burning sensation on my scrotum, and my skin's turning red. It's not constant, but kind of comes and goes. Is there something I should be doing to ease this feeling? Would using something like Dettol be a good idea? I'd really appreciate any advice on what precautions to take to prevent this from happening again.
Could be due to a skin irritation or infection. Dettol is not recommended for use on the scrotum as it may further irritate the sensitive skin in that area. To help relieve the burning sensation and promote healing, you can try using a soothing cream or ointment containing zinc oxide or calamine. Additionally, keeping the area clean and dry is important.

Im from India, and Ive noticed that my skin is a bit uneven. My inner thighs and buttocks seem much darker compared to the rest of my body, especially after I had a fungal infection there which has now cleared up. I'm also a little overweight, which might contribute to the issue. Is there any cream or treatment that could help lighten these dark areas? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
