I'm really worried because I've been dealing with a scabies infestation for the last four weeks. I've already tried taking teczine for 12 days, used HH fuduic cream, and also took Xyzal for 12 days along with micodoxbx and the same cream. I even applied permetrin all over my body twice and took ivermectol 12mg twice, but it keeps coming back. Can you help me figure out why it's not going away and what else I can do to get rid of it?

Your treatment is correct but recurrence might be due to lack of hygiene,focus in that aspect and have one more course of the treatment

I went trekking a couple of months ago and ended up getting bitten by a leech. It was attached for just a few minutes and had barely started to suck blood. Now, the wound's healed but there's this tiny bump left that sometimes gets really itchy. Is there anything I can do to deal with this?

Its likely that the bump is a residual scar or a reaction to the leech bite. Applying a soothing cream like hydrocortisone or a natural remedy like aloe vera gel may help with the itching. If it persists or causes discomfort, a dermatologist can offer further advice.

I'm really worried because I got a positive result for HSV IgG with a range of 2.7. I've had the virus for three months, and it's mainly affecting my testicles, anus, and penis. I'm not experiencing pain, swelling, itching, or ulcers on my penis. I'm just scared and unsure if this is something that can be treated forever. Can you advise on what steps I should take?

I've been through over 20 laser hair removal sessions on my face with two different doctors, but now Im dealing with even more coarse hair growth than before. Im considering electrolysis for hair removal, but Im unsure if it actually guarantees permanent results or if it's just another method for hair reduction like laser. Could you explain the potential side effects or downsides of electrolysis treatment?
