I'm really worried about this redness and rash under my private parts. It all started around two months ago, and initially, it was just itching. But, within two weeks, it turned red and spread quickly. I've been trying various creams and dusting powders, but nothing seems to help, and the problem's still here. Can you help me figure out what's going on?

I'm dealing with this really annoying pain right at my tailbone and on the skin around it, exactly where the upper part of the butt cheeks meet. It usually flares up when I'm lying on my back and puts pressure on that area. Honestly, it's been so painful that it's making sleep tough. I've had a bed sore just above that spot for years, but it sorta dried up. This new pain started about a week ago. I'm really confused about whether this is a skin thing or more of a bone issue. Who should I talk to? Do you have any idea what might be causing this?

I'm dealing with a Vitamin D deficiency and white patches on my skin, so I've started taking Vit D MGD3 tablets once a week and Calcium tablets every other day, as advised by my doctor. But now after about 23 days, I'm getting really bad mouth ulcers. I've even switched the brand of the tablets and consulted different doctors three times, but the ulcers keep coming back as soon as I start these medicines. What do you think is causing this, and what should I do?

Dermat opinion is advised to the patient.

Does burnt hair grow back?

It entirely depends on level the burn took place. For mild burns hair regrowth usually takes places once the scalp gets healed.
