I've been having a really tough time with what I think is ringworm around my anus. They've got those classic round ring-like patterns, and it's been going on for around 2 months now. I've been using Terbinaforce cream and Kencel IT 100 tablets, but they haven't done much to help. The itching is so intense, and sometimes I scratch so much that my skin actually gets cut. I'm really not sure what to do next and could use some guidance. What do you recommend?

View allI have two moles on my face that I want to remove because they're changing in size and don't look good. They also keep getting scratched when I shave. Can you suggest a hospital or doctor I can consult? Is there any way to remove them without surgery, and if not, what's the cost of surgery? How many days will it take to heal, and is there a chance they'll grow back?
Yes, Sx is better option but still for final please consult surgeon for full P/E.

I've been using a procapil solution for a couple of months now, but I haven't noticed any improvement in my hair fall. I'm quite concerned about whether I should stop using it. If I discontinue it, will it cause my hair fall to worsen? I'm really worried and would appreciate some guidance.
Procapil is a combination of biotinoyl tripeptide-1, apigenin, and oleanolic acid, commonly found in hair growth products. If you have not seen any improvement in hair fall after 2 months of use, it may be appropriate to discontinue it. Discontinuing procapil solution is not known to cause an increase in hair fall. You can consider switching to minoxidil solution, which is a commonly used medication for hair growth. The recommended dosage for minoxidil solution is typically 1 milliliter applied to the scalp twice daily.

I've been struggling with stretch marks and came across Strallium cream. I'm curious if it's really effective. Also, if I choose to go for laser treatment, how much will it actually reduce the visibility of my stretch marks?
