I've noticed some white patches on the skin of my penis. They don't really hurt, but they just seem odd to me. Could you guide me on where I should go for treatment and what type of doctor I should consult to address this issue?

I'm currently using minoxidil 5% for my male pattern baldness and getting PRP treatments too. But the minoxidil is giving me dandruff, and I've been washing my hair every other day. I'm wondering if it's okay or even beneficial to wash my hair every day instead. Any advice on this?

Head wash three times a day is sufficient, dandruff issues could be due to fungal infection u can use topic antifungal medications, visit Dermatologist for appropriate treatment..
