I'm dealing with really itchy, dry, and flaky skin, mainly around my joints. It also gets red and sometimes even oozes if I scratch too much. Do you think soframycin could help calm these symptoms, or is it better to look for a different treatment? I'm trying to figure out how to manage it better.

I'm feeling a bit better after having chicken pox for the past 12 days. Is it okay to have sex now, or would it be safer to wait a little longer?

It's great to hear you're feeling better. However, it's recommended to wait until all scabs have fallen off and your skin has healed completely before resuming sexual activity. This helps reduce the risk of spreading the virus and ensures your body has fully recovered.

I'm really confused about a treatment suggestion I got. My husband's doctor recommended Propysalic nf6 ointment for his hair loss on his chin, and for me, he recommended a different ointment that starts with an "O" and has a green color. Can anyone help me figure out what that might be? I'm worried and just want to make sure I'm using the right thing.
