I've been dealing with cracked skin in my groin area, and I remember using this cream before that felt cool when applied and it cleared up the problem in just two days. Can you recommend any similar treatments or creams that might help? Im a bit worried and would appreciate your advice!

It sounds like you may have had a fungal infection in the groin region. A cream that provides a cooling sensation and helps with fungal infections is Clotrimazole cream. Visit a Dermatologist to get a prescription.

I'm struggling with my curly and dry hair, and I'm on the lookout for a good shampoo and conditioner. I've heard that it's important for these products to be paraben and SLS free, and Im wondering if that's really necessary or if sticking to a reputable brand would be just as effective. What do dermatologists generally think about using paraben and SLS-free products?

Sebamed shampoo is advised to the patient.

I'm really curious about whether curry leaf powder can actually help with hair fall and promote hair regrowth. I've heard it's similar to curry leaf lime tea, but does it really work? Can you share any insights or experiences with it?
