I've been really worried about these itchy rashes that have come back again on my body, and I'm not sure why they're happening. A while back, I had rashes on my face and scalp, and after seeing a local doctor, I found out I had a high IGE level of 930. The meds seemed to help back then, and my rashes went away, but now they're back even though my IGE level is down to 330. I stumbled upon something online about Staphylococcus aureus possibly being the cause, and on top of all this, I'm dealing with digestion problems. I'm really confused and would love some guidance to figure out what's going on. Could these issues be connected, or am I looking in the wrong direction?

Staphylococcus aureus is a type of bacteria commonly found on the skin and in the nose, which can cause infections, including skin conditions like atopic dermatitis, eczema, and impetigo; given your history of recurring itchy rashes, high IgE levels, and digestion problems, it's possible that S. aureus is contributing to your symptoms, especially since S. aureus can produce toxins that exacerbate skin conditions and may also be linked to gut health issues; consult a dermatologist or an allergist to discuss

I've had these black spots near my private area for about a month now, and they itch quite a bit. What could be causing this, and how can I get rid of them?

It sounds like you may be experiencing a fungal infection. I recommend using an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole 1% twice a day on the affected area for 2 weeks. Additionally, you can take an oral antifungal medication like Fluconazole 150mg once a week for 4 weeks to help clear up the infection. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry, and avoid wearing tight clothing to help with the healing process.

I've been dealing with these itchy and painful bumps on my butt cheeks for over a decade now, and it's pretty frustrating. They come and go, but they're mostly always there. I used to be able to squeeze out the pus, and it would help, but recently, it's like everything's hardened and I can't get any pus out anymore. Sometimes I notice the bumps showing up on my inner thighs and the sides of my waist, too. Do you have any advice or insight on what's going on and how I might manage this?

Based on your description, it sounds like you may be experiencing recurrent episodes of boils or abscesses. These are usually caused by bacterial infections of the hair follicles. To help treat and prevent these bumps, I recommend practicing good hygiene by keeping the affected areas clean and dry. You can also apply warm compresses to the bumps to help them come to a head and drain. Additionally, you may benefit from using an over-the-counter antibiotic ointment like Neosporin to help prevent infection.

I'm a bit concerned about my hair situation. I've been using the androanagen solution with sebowash shampoo as my dermatologist prescribed. But recently, they switched my shampoo to anaphase, and now I'm noticing more hair falling out, especially from the crown area. I'm worried it might be the new shampoo. What do you think I should do?

If hair fall is noticeable due to anaphase shampoo then stop using it and visit Dermatologist for alternate treatment.
