I've been struggling with a dry scalp and it's leading to dandruff all the time. Could you recommend a good shampoo for this?

View allI'm really worried about something that seems to be going on down there. I got married recently and since then, Ive had unprotected sex multiple times. A few times, I used mustard oil for lubrication, and now Ive noticed these red pimple-like bumps on my penis shaft and under the skin. Theyre completely red and seem to be spreading. Could this be because of the mustard oil, or is it possible that Ive picked up an infection?

I've been dealing with this fungal skin issue on my butt crack, and it's really bothering me. I'm using terbinafin cream, but I'm wondering if there's another ointment I should try. Do you think taking tablets would help as well? I'd appreciate any advice you might have.
For fungal skin conditions like the one you have described, in addition to terbinafine cream, you can also apply clotrimazole cream twice a day to the affected area. It is important to keep the area clean and dry to prevent further fungal growth. As for oral tablets, you can consider taking fluconazole 150mg once a week for 2-4 weeks, but it is best to consult with a healthcare professional before starting any oral antifungal medication. Make sure to wear loose-fitting cotton underwear and avoid tight clothing to promote air circulation.

I've been dealing with a fungal infection around my thigh area and lower abdomen, and it seems to be spreading. I've tried a few different medications, but I can't remember their names, and I've even applied apple cider vinegar with no luck. Could you suggest some effective medicines or treatments that might help me get rid of it?
Candid cream for local application is advised for 3 weeks, along with tab flucanozole 150 mg once a week for 2 weeks is advised to the patient.
