I've been dealing with these red rings that itch for about six months now. Some medications help, but only for a short time, and then the rings come back. What might be causing this, and is there a better way to treat or manage it? I'm a bit worried since it's been going on for quite a while.

I've got this boil in my underarm that's developed these tiny mouths or openings on it. The doctor prescribed me Ultimox 625, then switched to Linox 600, and gave me Fusiderm cream to apply. I'm just really anxious if this treatment will actually get rid of the boil for good. What do you think?

#NAME?

I'm dealing with hair loss and got my blood work back, showing my vitamin D level is really low at just 6. My doctor gave me a vitamin D injection and advised a follow-up dose in six months. I'm wondering, how long will it take for this injection to actually boost my vitamin D levels? Should I be taking any supplements in the meantime to help out?
