I've been dealing with this scabies issue for almost 45 months now. I used permethrin and lindane lotion, and that helped a lot, but I'm frustrated because I still have these nodular bumps and persistent itching, especially in my armpits and genitals. I've tried corticosteroid ointments and even oral antiallergics, but nothing seems to fully clear it up. What else can I do to get rid of them and the itching once and for all? I'm pretty concerned about why this is just not going away.

I'm really worried about my hair loss. The crown of my head is almost bald now, but thankfully the rest of my hair seems okay. I'm wondering, is there really a medication out there that can reverse this permanently? And if medication can't cut it, what other steps should I consider taking?
Hair loss on the crown area, known as male pattern baldness, can be treated with medication to some extent. One of the most common medications for this is Finasteride, which is taken orally once a day. Another option is Minoxidil, which is a topical solution applied to the scalp twice a day. These medications can help slow down hair loss and promote some regrowth, but results vary from person to person. It's important to note that these medications need to be used continuously to maintain any benefits. If medication alone is not providing satisfactory results, another option to consider is hair transplant surgery. This involves moving hair follicles from areas of the scalp where hair is thicker to the balding areas. This can provide a more permanent solution to hair loss on the crown. It's best to consult with a dermatologist or a hair specialist to discuss the most suitable treatment option for your specific situation.

I'm really getting worried because I have these corns on my left leg that just aren't healing, even after more than a month. Can you suggest any medicine that might help?
For corns, you can try using Salicylic Acid topical solution. Apply it directly on the corns once daily for about a week. You can also use a corn plaster containing Salicylic Acid for better results. Make sure to follow the instructions on the packaging for proper usage.
