I'm really worried because I have super sensitive, acne-prone skin and I just started using ACNESTAR soap since I have pimples almost everywhere on my body. I've also been applying pure aloe vera and leaving it on overnight, plus I began drinking Safi from yesterday. But last night, my skin was really itchy. Could this itchiness be from the soap, or maybe it's from combining the soap, Safi, and aloe vera all at once? I'm not sure what to do. Can you give me some advice, please?

ACNESTAR soap contains Salicylic Acid which can sometimes cause skin irritation, especially if you have sensitive skin. Safi is an herbal blood purifier and can sometimes cause allergic reactions in some individuals. Using multiple products together can also sometimes lead to skin irritation. I would recommend stopping the ACNESTAR soap for now and see if the itching improves. You can continue using the aloe vera gel before sleeping as it is generally soothing for the skin. As for Safi, you can also stop it temporarily to see if the itching subsides.

View allI'm living in Qatar and have been dealing with a fungal infection for about 11 months. I'm on treatment, but it doesn't seem to be working. Can you please give me some advice on what else I could try or if there's a different treatment approach I should consider?
For fungal infections that are not responding to treatment, it's important to consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation. However, in cases of persistent fungal infections, antifungal medications such as Terbinafine (brand name Lamisil) or Fluconazole (brand name Diflucan) may be prescribed. The dosage and duration of treatment will depend on the severity of the infection and your individual medical history. It's important to follow the treatment plan as prescribed by your healthcare provider.

I'm using Kera XL hair growth serum on the spots where my hairline is receding. I'm really curious if this stuff actually works. Can you tell me if hair serums like this are effective for balding areas, or am I wasting my time?
Kera XL hair growth serum contains minoxidil which is known to promote hair growth. It is commonly used to treat male pattern baldness. For best results, apply 1ml of Kera XL hair growth serum twice daily directly onto the scalp in the hair loss area. Consistent use over a period of several months may be needed to see visible results.

I'm really curious about Mintop 5 ml for hair growth. I've heard some folks mention that it might cause more hair fall initially, and that kinda worries me. Is it true that I might notice more hair falling out when I first start using it? I'd love to know your thoughts on this because I'm hesitant to try it if that's the case. Can you help clear this up for me?
Yes, it is the side-effects of the medication.Continue all the medications a advised by the dermatologist..
