I've got this dry, yellowish skin on my fingers, on both hands actually, and its been peeling with these painful bleeding cuts. It's been like this for the past two months and nothing seems to be helping, not even the ointments like Moisturex and Topisal that I've tried. It's really frustrating and uncomfortable. Could you help me figure out what might be causing this and suggest what I can do about it?

View allI've been having this really uncomfortable problem with severe itching all over my body, and whenever I scratch, these lines show up on my skin. It seems like the only thing that helps is taking cetirizine. It usually stops the itching for about a week, but then it all starts again. I'm not sure what's going on. Could this be something serious or is there a way to treat it so it doesn't keep coming back?

I've noticed that ever since I donated blood for the first time a few days ago, my hair has been falling out more than usual. Is there a connection between donating blood and experiencing increased hair fall? Should I be concerned about this change?

I'm a bit confused about how to take Acivir 400 mg for these active lesions on my penis, as I've been diagnosed with HSV-2. My test results show my IGG and IGM are both at 183, while HSV-1 and HIV came back negative. The instructions were to take the medication three times a day for seven days, but I'm unsure if I should swallow the tablet with water or if it needs to be dissolved first. I wasn't able to ask the doctor who prescribed it and could really use some guidance. Any advice on this?
You should take the tablet orally with a full glass of water. Do not crush, chew, or break the tablet before swallowing. It is important to follow the prescribed dosage and duration of treatment to effectively counter the virus and decrease the lesions.
