I'm using cipla 8x shampoo for hair fall because my doctor recommended it, but I actually have an oily scalp without dandruff. I wash my hair every day and Im wondering if its okay to use cipla 8x daily? I tend to use just a small amount each time.

I'm experiencing some itching, and then it swells up like a mosquito bite afterwards. Could you recommend any cream for this? My dad was told to use FZHH 150, IVECOP12, SIZON FORTE, HHMITE SOAP, and a couple of other creams by a doctor. Can you suggest something similar that might work for me?

I recommend you to use a cream containing Hydrocortisone and Calamine for the itching and swelling. You can apply it topically on the affected area 2-3 times a day.

I've noticed that the skin around my penis and testicles has turned red and it's really itchy. It seems like there's some kind of sticky liquid discharge too. I've never been sexually active, so I'm unsure about what's happening. Could this be an infection or something else, and what should I do about it?

Use an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole 1% twice a day on the affected area for 1-2 weeks. Keep the area clean and dry, and avoid wearing tight clothing. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.
