I've noticed that my hair keeps turning white more and more since last year. Is this something normal as you age, or should I be worried? Are there any specific reasons this might be happening, and is there anything I can do to prevent more of my hair from turning white so soon?

Premature graying of hair can be due to various factors such as genetics, stress, nutritional deficiencies, or medical conditions. To help slow down the graying process, you can try taking a supplement containing Biotin and Vitamin B12. You can also use a hair product like Minoxidil solution to help with hair growth and pigmentation. Additionally, make sure to eat a balanced diet rich in antioxidants and maintain a healthy lifestyle.

I'm dealing with some dry skin and cracks on my scrotum, and there's a sticky fluid coming out. This has been happening for the past two days. I've also been having issues with a fungal infection that caused red rashes on my thighs, which I'm already getting treatment for. I'm kind of worried about why this new symptom has come up. Could it be related to the fungal infection treatment, or is it something entirely different? Any advice on what I should do next would be really helpful.
Candid cream for local application is advised for 3 weeks, along with tab flucanozole 150 mg once a week for 2 weeks is advised to the patient.

I've been dealing with this intense itching all over my body because my IGE levels are high. The last time I checked was two years ago, and it was at 300. A skin specialist suggested I take either antibiotic medicine or Ebastine 20, which seemed to help for about three days, but then the itching comes right back. Is it okay to keep taking this medicine regularly, or should I consider other options?
High IgE levels can cause itching and skin issues. Given your experience with Ebastel or Best 20 (antihistamines), it's clear that: *Alternatives and Next Steps* 1. *Consult an allergist or immunologist*: To better understand your IgE levels and develop a personalized treatment plan. 2. *Consider immunotherapy*: Allergy shots or sublingual immunotherapy might help reduce your IgE levels and alleviate itching. 3. *Topical treatments*: Apply topical creams or ointments, such as pimecrolimus or tacrolimus, to reduce itching and inflammation. 4. *Oral medications*: If antihistamines aren't effective, your doctor might prescribe oral corticosteroids or immunosuppressants. *Important Notes* 1. *Don't self-medicate*: Avoid taking medications without consulting your doctor, as this can lead to adverse effects or interactions. 2. *Monitor your IgE levels*: Regularly check your IgE levels to track changes and adjust your treatment plan accordingly
