Question 1

I'm 20 and I've started noticing something odd with my beard  it's usually full dark, but now I've got about 15 hairs turning brown. I'm a bit puzzled since no one in my family, including my brother, has a brown beard. I'm trying to figure out if this is just normal or if it's a sign it might go grey soon. Could it be due to poor nutrients, or maybe too much sun exposure? What's really causing this?

Accepted Answer

Don't worry, 15 brown hairs in a full dark beard is a minor change.

_Normal Variation_: It's common for beards to have a few stray hairs of different colors.

_Possible Causes_:

1. _Sun exposure_: Sunlight can lighten or change hair color.
2. _Nutritional variations_: Minor fluctuations in vitamin or mineral intake might affect hair color.
3. _Hormonal changes_: Hormonal fluctuations can influence hair growth and color.

_Unlikely to Turn Gray Soon_: 15 brown hairs don't indicate imminent graying.

_Monitor and Maintain_:

1. _Keep an eye on changes_: If the brown hairs increase or spread, consult a doctor.
2. _Maintain a balanced diet_: Ensure adequate vitamins and minerals.
3. _Protect your beard from sun damage_: Use a hat or hair products with SPF.

Consult a doctor if you're concerned or notice significant changes.

Question 2

I'm dealing with some rashes and itching around my private parts, and they're also spreading to my buttocks. I've been using hallovate s cream for about a month. The problem is, the rashes seem to go away but then come back within a week. Why might this be happening, and what can I do to get rid of them for good?

Visit your Physician for appropriate management

Question 3

Hey, so I've noticed over the past 56 days that the skin on my testicle sack is getting dry and scaly. When I'm bathing, a thin scaly layer peels off. I've always been good with hygiene, so I'm not sure why this is happening. Today it started itching, and when I rubbed it gently, it felt like a burning sensation, kind of like a paper cut. After cleaning it in the shower, the whole area turned red. I've tried using creams like itch guard, dermigo5, and luliconazole which I got from the medical store, but nothing seems to be helping. I felt a bit embarrassed to go to the doctor in person. I'm just worried about what's going on. Do you know what this could be and should I see a dermatologist or a sexologist about it?

Accepted Answer

You may be experiencing a fungal infection in the skin of your scrotum. The burning sensation, dryness, scaliness, and redness are common symptoms of such an infection. I recommend using an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole 1% twice daily for 2 weeks. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it would be best to consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and management.

I've been using betamil cream for a long time, and I'm really worried because it seems like I've lost the first layer of skin on my face. Do you have any advice on how I can recover from this?

don't use any cream for long time
