I've been dealing with these dark patches on the skin in my pubic area and I tried using terbicip for a couple of weeks, but there hasn't been any improvement. I'm getting really worried and wondering what else I could do to treat this? Could it be something serious, or am I just missing something with the treatment?

I'm really worried about my sister. She's currently 22 weeks and 4 days pregnant and recently had a viral fever. The fever's gone now, but she's experiencing some intense itching all over her body. The doctor mentioned it's a post-viral symptom, but she's been taking LCZ and using lacto calamine without any relief. What are some quick solutions or remedies she can try to ease the itching?
Consider adding an oral antihistamine like cetirizine or levocetirizine, and a topical cream like aloe vera gel or calamine lotion with 1% menthol, under medical guidance, to help alleviate itching, and also ensure your sister stays hydrated and avoids scratching to prevent infection.

I'm taking Keraboost tablets every morning. Is it okay if I start taking two tablets instead of one?
no one tablet in a day is enough ,if you consume morethan one it comes with complications like constipation,abdominal discomfort etc., consume balanced diet with extra protien which helps for growth of healthy hair.
