I've been dealing with this really annoying itch on my scalp for over 1520 days now. I've tried dandruff shampoos and even mixed tea tree oil with coconut oil, but nothing seems to help. There's definitely no lice or dandruff, and thankfully, my hair isn't falling out in clumps or anything, just the usual few strands. I'm starting to think this all began after I used a certain type of mehndi on my hair. Could that be the cause? What should I do next?

I've been struggling with psoriasis for a while now, and I'm really hoping there's a permanent solution out there. I'm curious if there's any treatment that can completely cure it. It's been tough dealing with the flare-ups, and I'm looking for any advice or options that could help.

Psorolin B ointment is advised for local application, also take tab allegra 120 mg orally for 2 weeks, if any side-effects dermatologist opinion is advised to the patient.

I've been having this constant burning sensation on the skin of my scrotum, and it's just in one spot. Everything else feels okay, but it's really bothering me because it's hard to walk, sit, or even sleep. I've tried using Suthol and some cooling powders, but it's not helping. Could you tell me what might be going on and what I should do next?

That could be microbial infection,no need to worry,visit dermatologist for appropriate treatment,personal hygiene is the main stay for this to get treated.

I've been hearing about this anti-acne facial clean up that's typically available at beauty salons, and I'm curious if this kind of treatment is also handled by dermatologists. I feel like it might be safer if a dermatologist did it. Also, I'm wondering about how much it would typically cost.
