I've been dealing with hair fall and my dermatologist suggested using Halox lotion on my scalp twice a day. Can you explain what this lotion actually does for hair fall and if it's really effective?

View allI've been dealing with this constant itching on my body that's really bugging me. Weirdly, there are no rashes, but my skin underneath looks really dark, almost black. I've tried tons of allergy meds like antibiotics, evil 50, and levocet, but nothing seems to work. On top of that, I've also noticed these small bumps on my penis, and I'm worried it might be a fungal infection. Any ideas on what could be going on or what I should do next?

I'm really worried because I've been dealing with scabies for over a month and it's just not getting better. I've got this constant itching everywhere on my hands, feet, finger webs, underarms, and even inside my vagina and around the anal area. My dermatologist has prescribed a bunch of antifungal tablets, vaginal creams, and antiparasitic meds, but once the treatment cycle ends, the itching just starts up again. I'm starting to wonder, can scabies actually cause itching inside the vagina and anal area? What should I do if the medications aren't helping?
Scabies can cause intense itching, including in the genital and anal areas, due to the mite burrowing into the skin; to address your persistent symptoms, consider the following: - Re-consult your dermatologist for a thorough re-evaluation. - Ensure proper treatment of all household members and close contacts. - Use topical permethrin cream (5%) or oral ivermectin as prescribed. - Apply topical creams or ointments exactly as directed. - Wash and dry clothing, bedding, and towels in hot water and dry on a hot setting. - Dry-clean or seal in a plastic bag for 3 days any items that can't be washed.

I'm 28 and I've been dealing with these malar bags. I really don't want to go under the knife, so I've been trying different massages and even icing them. Is there anything else I can do to help reduce them or should I consider other treatments? I'm just really hoping to avoid surgery if possible.
