I've had these red circles that are really itchy, and I've been using candid powder and ring out cream, but they don't seem to be working that well. It's been going on for about 15 days now. What else can I do or try to help get rid of them? Do you think it's something more serious?

I've always thought I had good hair, but over time, I've noticed it's not as dense as it used to be. I've constantly struggled with dandruff too. In Bangalore, the water is quite hard, and we usually use borewell or tank water for bathing. I'm wondering if washing my hair with KENT purifier water, which has a TDS level of 80, could have any negative effects. Could this be a better option for my hair problems?

You can purchase and use water softeners on a bucket of water before taking bath.

I'm looking at this picture and wondering which cream might help clear it up. It's been there for about 15 days now. It itches every now and then, but there's no burning or pain. Could you give me some advice on what might work?

I occasionally get rashes in my private areas, and this time they are really itchy. Could you let me know what might be going on and what I can do about it?

I recommend using an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole 1% cream. Apply a thin layer to the affected area twice a day for 2 weeks. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry to help the medication work effectively.
