I've been experiencing severe hair loss lately and it's really worrying me. I did all sorts of blood tests and found out I have a vitamin D deficiency. My doctor suggested taking D Rise 60k, but I'm wondering if that's the only thing causing my hair loss. Should I consider seeing a homeopathic or Ayurvedic specialist for this? What else could be causing such drastic hair loss?

I'm a 45-year-old guy and I've been using hair dye for the past 15 years, but lately I've started having allergic reactions. There's itching on my scalp and face, and my face has turned kind of blackish. I've tried different brands and types, like liquids, powder, and shampoo dyes over the years. Could you suggest a hair dye or maybe tablets that might help with these allergies, and is there an ointment that could help reduce the dark color on my face?

I'm dealing with a really stubborn fungal infection on my back, stomach, and ear. I've been taking Itraconazole 200 mg for three months and it seemed to clear up, but now, about ten days after stopping the medication, the itching is back, especially on my back and around my ear. Could you suggest a treatment plan or medication to help me get rid of this for good?

I'm dealing with some really dry skin issues and I've got this visible white spot in a sensitive area. It's painful between my thighs and around my genital area. I'm worried it might be some kind of fungal infection or maybe scabies. Can I use Vaseline petroleum jelly to help with the dryness, or could that make things worse? I'm just not sure what the best thing to do is.

No vaseline jelly is not advised.
