I've noticed that when I part my hair on the right side, my scalp is pretty visible, and it seems like there's no hair growing in that area. Plus, my hair has gotten really thin. Do you have any idea why this might be happening?

I've been dealing with a persistent fungal infection for the past three months and nothing seems to work. I've tried loads of medicines, Patanjali products, Candid dusting powder, and even coconut oil, plus all sorts of advice from different people. Sometimes it clears up a bit, but then the itching and growth come back. I'm really at my wit's end with this. I went to see a skin specialist too, but the meds haven't helped at all in the last two months. Can you offer some advice or alternatives I can try? Its getting really frustrating.

Try a combination therapy of oral antifungal medication along with topical antifungal cream. You can start by taking Tab Terbinafine 250mg once daily for 4-6 weeks along with applying Clotrimazole cream twice daily on the affected area. Make sure to keep the affected area clean and dry, and avoid wearing tight clothing. If there is no improvement or if the infection worsens, please follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and management.

I've been dealing with some really intense itching around my groin area, and it's starting to worry me. There are these small dark pink patches and nothing seems to really help. I've tried using Neosporin powder and cream, but they only provide some relief for a short while. I'm starting to think it might be a fungal issue. What could be causing this and what should I do to get lasting relief?

Severe itching in the groin area with dark pink small patches is likely indicative of a fungal infection, such as jock itch (tinea cruris). In addition to Neosporin, which is an antibiotic and may not be effective against fungi, you should consider using an antifungal medication. I recommend using Lotrimin Ultra cream twice daily for 2-4 weeks. Additionally, keeping the area clean and dry, wearing loose-fitting clothing, and avoiding sharing towels or clothing can help prevent the spread of the infection.
