I'm really worried because I've been using propyzole for over two months now, along with atarax, but it seems like it's getting worse instead of better. It's expanding more and more. What should I do next? It's really frustrating to see no improvement. Could there be something else affecting it?

I'm a breastfeeding mom and I'm worried about the skincare products I should or shouldn't use. I'm considering using a sunscreen day cream and wondering if it's safe. Also, I'm thinking about trying an anti-aging cream from Himalaya. Do you think these products are okay for me to use while I'm nursing?

Yes, sunscreen day cream can be safely used by a breastfeeding mother. Look for a sunscreen that is labeled as safe for use during breastfeeding. Apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least SPF 30 every day, and reapply every 2 hours if you are outdoors. As for the anti-ageing cream by Himalaya, it is generally safe to use during breastfeeding. However, it is always recommended to do a patch test before applying it to larger areas of the skin to check for any allergic reactions. Follow the instructions on the packaging for the correct application.

I started feeling an itch on my testicles a couple of days ago and ended up rubbing the area quite a bit. Now there's a wound from the rubbing and it's pretty painful, especially when I move. What should I do about this? Is it something to be worried about or will it heal by itself?
