yes you have to stop using the soap and ask your doctor to advise alternate soap or add moisturizer for your treatment.

I've got these three rash spots near my genitals, like right on my thigh. They're ring-shaped, different sizes, and super itchy. I'm worried they might not just be a skin irritation. Could it be something like a fungal infection or something else I need to get checked out? What do you think?

I started losing my hair after having COVID and it seemed to settle for a bit, but now its back and even worse. My doctor told me to use 1 ml of minoxidil twice a day and also suggested using 1 ml of a racine pro hair serum, which also contains minoxidil, once a day. I'm a bit worrieddoes using these together make sense? Is it safe to have the extra minoxidil from the serum too?
