I've been dealing with these constant headaches and my whole body just won't stop itching. Honestly, it feels like I'm getting poked by a thousand needles, and I've noticed some red marks popping up in a few spots. It's getting worse with each passing day. Could you figure out what's going on with me and what I should do?

You may be experiencing symptoms of an allergic reaction. To address the itching and redness, you can take an antihistamine such as Cetirizine (10mg) once daily. For the headache, you can take Acetaminophen (500mg) as needed for pain relief. However, it is important to identify and avoid the trigger causing your symptoms. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please seek medical attention for further evaluation and management.

I'm an 18-year-old girl and I've noticed my hair is getting really thin on the crown of my head and I'm not sure why it's happening. It's really worrying me. Could my past stress and skin allergies have something to do with it since I even had scalp allergies? Or is there another reason for this hair thinning? Looking for some advice.

Hair thinning at the crown area can be due to various reasons, including stress, skin allergies, hormonal imbalances, and nutritional deficiencies. In your case, since you have mentioned a history of skin allergy and scalp allergy, it is possible that these conditions have contributed to your hair thinning. To address this issue, I recommend using Minoxidil solution 2% twice daily on the affected area of the scalp. Additionally, taking Biotin tablets 10,000 mcg once daily can help improve hair growth and thickness. It is also important to manage your stress levels through relaxation techniques or counseling. If the hair thinning persists or worsens, it would be advisable to consult a dermatologist for a thorough evaluation and personalized treatment plan.

I'm looking for an ointment to treat jock itch but I really need one without menthol or any cooling agents. I've tried some before that had those and it wasn't a pleasant experience. Do you have any good recommendations?

You can try using Clotrimazole cream, which is effective in treating jock itch. Apply a thin layer of Clotrimazole cream to the affected area twice a day for 2-4 weeks.
