My friend left Veet on their private area for too long, like over an hour, and now the skin is badly burned, red, and super itchy, especially in the evenings. They've tried different creams but nothings helping. It's stressing them out, and theyre not really talking about it because they know it was their mistake leaving it on so long. What can they do to help heal the skin or ease the irritation?

I was cleaning my private parts, specifically the penis and scrotum, using Dettol and now the skin on my scrotum is really dry and a bit discolored. I've also noticed it's a lot less sensitive in that area. Should I be worried, and will it get better on its own in a few days?
Potential Underlying Causes_ 1. _Nutritional deficiencies_: Deficiencies in vitamin B12, iron, or folic acid can contribute to recurring mouth ulcers. 2. _Autoimmune disorders_: Conditions like lichen planus, pemphigus, or Behet's disease can cause persistent mouth ulcers. 3. _Hormonal changes_: Hormonal fluctuations during menstruation, pregnancy, or menopause can lead to mouth ulcers. 4. _Medication side effects_: Certain medications, such as NSAIDs, beta-blockers, or chemotherapy, can cause mouth ulcers. _Additional Treatment Options_ 1. _Topical corticosteroids_: Apply topical corticosteroids, like triamcinolone or clobetasol, to reduce inflammation and promote healing. 2. _Immune-modulating medications_: Consider medications like colchicine or pentoxifylline to modulate the immune system and reduce inflammation. 3. _Antiviral or antibacterial medications_: If your healthcare provider suspects a viral or bacterial infection, they may prescribe antiviral or antibacterial medications. 4. _Nutritional supplements_: Ensure adequate nutrition by taking supplements like vitamin B12, iron, or folic acid, as recommended by your healthcare provider. _Further Evaluation_ 1. _Consult a specialist_: Consider consulting an oral medicine specialist, dermatologist, or immunologist for further evaluation and guidance. 2. _Biopsy or laboratory tests_: Your healthcare provider may recommend a biopsy or laboratory tests to rule out underlying conditions.

I've been diagnosed with Alopecia Areata and my doctor suggested I take methyl prednisolone tablets. Is it safe for me to also use Nervijen and Etoshine tablets? I'm dealing with some heel pain too, so I'm just a bit concerned about mixing these meds. Can you advise?
