I've been struggling with lots of lice and lice eggs in my hair, and even with using Medikar and oils, nothing seems to work. My 10-year-old son is dealing with the same issue. Can you suggest some remedies for us?

I'm dealing with psoriasis for the last 6 years and haven't found anything to help cure it. My dermatologist mentioned that if I choose allopathy, I'll have to take meds forever, so I'm sticking with homeopathy. I'm curious if it's okay for me to use tulsi immunity booster in my situation. Any advice would be helpful.

I've got two corns right next to each other on my left index finger, and I've been using those salicylic acid corn caps to treat them, but they just keep coming back. What else can I try to finally get rid of them? Is there something I'm missing here, or maybe another treatment I should consider?

I've been dealing with some really intense itching around my groin area, and it's starting to worry me. There are these small dark pink patches and nothing seems to really help. I've tried using Neosporin powder and cream, but they only provide some relief for a short while. I'm starting to think it might be a fungal issue. What could be causing this and what should I do to get lasting relief?

Severe itching in the groin area with dark pink small patches is likely indicative of a fungal infection, such as jock itch (tinea cruris). In addition to Neosporin, which is an antibiotic and may not be effective against fungi, you should consider using an antifungal medication. I recommend using Lotrimin Ultra cream twice daily for 2-4 weeks. Additionally, keeping the area clean and dry, wearing loose-fitting clothing, and avoiding sharing towels or clothing can help prevent the spread of the infection.
