I'm trying to deal with this jock itch, and I've been using cipladine cream and Dettol, but I'm not sure if that's the right approach. Is there a better or permanent solution for jock itch that I should be considering?

I'm really worried about my hair. It seems like my hair is getting thinner and falling out more than ever. Every time I use oil or any of those hair nourishment products, the situation just worsens. It's really freaking me out. Do you have any idea why this might be happening and what I can do to stop my hair from falling out?

Hair fall can be caused by various factors such as stress, nutritional deficiencies, hormonal imbalances, or underlying health conditions. In your case, it seems like you may be experiencing a reaction to the hair products you are using. I recommend stopping the use of those products and switching to a gentle and nourishing shampoo. Additionally, you can try using Minoxidil solution on your scalp to promote hair growth. Make sure to follow the recommended dosage and application instructions. It's also important to maintain a healthy diet rich in vitamins and minerals essential for hair health. If the problem persists, consider consulting a dermatologist for further evaluation.
