Question 1

I have cuts on my foreskin, and they're not healing. Ive tried using creams like Boroline, Candid B, and Dermikem OC, but they haven't helped. I also took antibiotics, but its been a week and the pain keeps coming back. It heals a little, but as soon as I urinate or pull the skin back, it hurts again. Im a bit embarrassed to see a doctor about this, but I really need help. I did get some relief when I cleaned it with coconut oil. Can you suggest something that might work?

Question 2

Ive been using a procapil-based solution for the last two months, but Im not seeing any improvement in my hair fall. Should I stop using it? Also, does discontinuing the solution cause more hair fall? Please advise.

Accepted Answer

Procapil is a combination of biotinoyl tripeptide-1, apigenin, and oleanolic acid, commonly found in hair growth products. If you have not seen any improvement in hair fall after 2 months of use, it may be appropriate to discontinue it. Discontinuing procapil solution is not known to cause an increase in hair fall. You can consider switching to minoxidil solution, which is a commonly used medication for hair growth. The recommended dosage for minoxidil solution is typically 1 milliliter applied to the scalp twice daily.

Question 3

Ive had a red, itchy, and dry skin rash for the past 4-5 days between my neck and chest. It's not getting better and seems to be drying out. Is this something common or should I be more concerned?

Accepted Answer

The semi-circle shaped skin rash that is red, itchy, and situated between your neck and chest for 4-5 days may be a case of ringworm, also known as tinea corporis. To treat this, you can use an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole 1% twice a day for 2-4 weeks. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry. If the rash does not improve or worsens, it is advisable to consult a doctor for further evaluation and management.

Accepted Answer

Acanthosis nigricans can sometimes occur in individuals who are not overweight and lead an active lifestyle. To help improve the appearance of Acanthosis nigricans, you can try using a topical cream containing 20% urea or 12% ammonium lactate. These creams can help exfoliate the affected areas and improve the skin texture. Additionally, maintaining a healthy diet and keeping your skin well moisturized can also help in reducing the appearance of Acanthosis nigricans.
