I've got this boil on my scrotum, and I'm not sure what to do about it. Could you recommend any medicine or treatment for this? I'm a bit worried and would appreciate some guidance.

I recommend using an antibiotic ointment like Neosporin to help prevent infection and promote healing. Additionally, you can take an over-the-counter pain reliever like ibuprofen to help with any pain or discomfort. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry. If the boil does not improve or gets worse, please consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and treatment.

Question

I've been using Mintop Forte 5 and I'm a bit worried about possible side effects. If I stop using it, am I going to lose the hair I've already got, or is it likely to stay?

I'm trying to figure out how to use onabet sd solution on my hair. Should I put it directly on my scalp or mix it with water first? And after applying it, how long should I wait before washing my hair? I'm a bit confused about the right steps and timing for this treatment.

Question

I've just started using Minokem F solution 5 and I'm a bit confused about how it works. Does it only help with hair growth on the crown area, or can it also be effective for the front of the scalp? My main issue is a receding hairline, not balding on the crown. Is this treatment going to help with that?
