I've been struggling with dandruff for a really long time, and honestly, it's starting to get on my nerves. It flakes out whenever I run my fingers through my hair or even when I'm just sitting still. I'm really curious about what might be causing this. Is it something in my diet or maybe my shampoo? Could it be related to stress or maybe something else entirely? I'm looking for some real advice on what I can do to finally get rid of it. Any thoughts on treatments or remedies that really work?

I'm really struggling with a persistent fungal infection that's been going on for about 3 months. I've seen various doctors and tried all kinds of meds, but after a few days or weeks, it just comes back to the same situation. I'm dealing with these ring-like red formations on my skin that are super itchy, and they leave red patches. Any idea what might be causing this or how to actually get rid of it? It's really frustrating!

Chronic Fungal infection needs long-term treatment, personal hygiene measures are most important to cure this disease, practice special care towards affected area.

I'm dealing with some pretty frustrating scalp itching and I'm using a mix of three different medicated shampoos as my doctor recommended. They also prescribed Onabet SD and Onabet lotion. But I'm wonderingis it okay if I start using MINTOP5 on the days when I'm not applying the Onabet lotions? Would that be alright to add into my routine without causing any issues?

Yes, you can use MINTOP 5% on the days when you are not using Onabet lotions. Make sure to apply MINTOP 5% solution to the scalp once a day, preferably in the evening. Remember to wash your hands thoroughly after applying the solution and avoid getting it in your eyes.

I've been using tretin 0.025 cream for the past two months on a doctor's recommendation and while I've seen some good results, I'm still struggling with clogged pores and now it seems like my pore size has increased too. I'm feeling really frustrated. Could you recommend a good tretinoin gel that might give me better results?

As suggested by one of the doctors, you can try using Retin-A Micro gel 0.04% for better results. Apply a pea-sized amount on the affected area once daily in the evening. This gel formulation may help in reducing clogged pores and improving the overall texture of your skin. Remember to use sunscreen during the day while using this product.
