I've been dealing with lichen planus, which appeared on my foot a couple of years ago. Back then, Allegra 180 mg and Halox S ointment worked for me, but now it's flared up on my hands and face. I'm really worriedespecially since it's on my face. Is there any advanced treatment or maybe even surgery that could offer a permanent solution? Also, are there any lifestyle changes I should consider? It's starting to stress out not just me but my whole family. Could really use some advice here.

Lichen planus can be challenging to treat, but there are options available. For the recurrence on your hands and face, you can try using Tacrolimus ointment along with Allegra 180 mg tablets. Tacrolimus ointment can help reduce inflammation and itching on the affected areas. Additionally, you can continue using Halox s ointment for relief. There is no high-end treatment like surgery to permanently cure lichen planus, but lifestyle changes can help manage the condition. Avoiding triggers such as stress, certain medications, and allergens can help prevent flare-ups.

View allI usually bathe about four times a week. I'm feeling really tired lately, and I'm also concerned because I can't seem to stop watching porn videos. Could this be affecting my health, and is there something I should be worried about?
It is important to moisturize your skin after bathing to help maintain its health. Feeling very tired could be a sign of various underlying health issues, such as poor sleep quality, stress, or anemia. It is important to maintain a healthy lifestyle, including regular exercise, balanced diet, and adequate sleep to combat fatigue. As for watching porn videos, excessive consumption can lead to addiction and have negative effects on mental health, relationships, and overall well-being. It is important to seek help if you are struggling to control your viewing habits. For fatigue, you can try taking a multivitamin supplement like Centrum once daily after meals to ensure you are getting all the necessary nutrients for energy production.

I've been dealing with this really annoying fungal infection around my groin and scrotum area. The itchiness is driving me nuts, and every time I scratch, it starts to burn even more. It's like a vicious cycle. I tried using some btex cream, but it didn't really help. Can you suggest what I should do to get some relief?
Fungal infection.. Also called jock itch, when occurs in groin.. Usually fungal infection is common in moist areas of body like skin folds..It's mostly circular or round in appearance.. May be red or black in colour.. Treatment depending on the type and severity.. Avoid sharing clothes, towels and soap; sweating also increases it..As it has to be differentiated from eczema, bacterial and viral infection, doctor need to see to confirm the diagnosis.

I've been dealing with some pretty bad itching and rashes all over my body. I already took an anti-allergy pill but it didn't seem to help at all. Before this, I had a fever and took paracetamol for it. Could you suggest something better for these symptoms?
