Question

I'm wondering if smoking 12 cigarettes a day might interfere with the effectiveness of minoxidil or other hair loss treatments. Could this habit have a negative impact on hair regrowth?

Question

Im from India, and Ive noticed that my skin is a bit uneven. My inner thighs and buttocks seem much darker compared to the rest of my body, especially after I had a fungal infection there which has now cleared up. I'm also a little overweight, which might contribute to the issue. Is there any cream or treatment that could help lighten these dark areas? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Question

I'm a bit worried about a situation with my left groin. It started itching a lot today and I noticed there's hard skin peeling off. I took some of it off but now there's this painful red patch where the skin was. My right groin seems totally fine though. Could this be something serious, or do you think it might clear up on its own?

Question
