I'm dealing with a persistent jock itch and the whole thing is really frustrating. I first tried using Candid Dusting powder, which helped for a bit, but the itch just kept coming back. Then I went for an antifungal cream called Clobiprop NM, and while it reduced the rashes, they returned as soon as I stopped the cream. I've also tried a stronger cream, Clop GM, which seemed to reduce the rash and itch at first, but now my skin has turned white and its painful and itching again. Could you suggest what might be a good treatment or medication for this?

I went to a hair treatment clinic for hair fall issues, and they mentioned that three PRP sessions would permanently stop my hair fall. Is that really true, or do I need to keep getting PRP treatments regularly to maintain the hair growth I've gained? I'm a bit worried and just want to get a clear answer.

no prp is not permanant
