The superstition about nose itching being a sign of impending argument is just a myth.

Common Causes of External Nose Itching

Dry skin: Cold weather, dry air, or over-washing can cause dryness and itching.

Allergies: Seasonal allergies, skin allergies, or allergic reactions to products (e.g., soap, makeup) can lead to itching.

Skin conditions: Eczema, acne, or seborrheic dermatitis can cause itching and irritation.

Irritants: Exposure to chemicals, fragrances, or other irritants can cause itching.

To Soothe the Itching

Apply moisturizer to keep the skin hydrated.

Avoid scratching, which can lead to further irritation.

Use gentle, fragrance-free products.

Consider over-the-counter anti-itch creams or hydrocortisone cream.

I'm trying to understand the potential risks of using Gemitrol Nasal Spray. My doctor prescribed it after diagnosing me with a fracture in my L1 vertebra and osteoporosis. But I read online that Calcitonin salmon, which is in the spray, might be linked to an increased risk of cancer. Should I be worried about this? Are there safer alternatives available? And how long is it safe to keep using this medication? I'm honestly a bit concerned and would appreciate any advice you can give.

I'm a bit confused about my thyroid test results. My TSH is 9, but my T4 levels are normal. Is this considered clinical or subclinical hypothyroidism? Do I need to start taking levothyroxine? I'm really unsure about what to do next.

A TSH level of 9 with normal T4 and T3 levels typically indicates subclinical hypothyroidism; treatment with levothyroxine (T4) may be considered, especially if symptoms are present, but the decision to start treatment should be based on a thorough evaluation by an endocrinologist or healthcare provider, considering factors like symptoms, age, and overall health
