I've been dealing with this itchiness and discomfort when swallowing for the past three months, and I've also noticed a white cream-like substance on the top of my penis. I started using Candid B cream on it and have taken some tablets and capsules, but I'm not sure if it's helping. Could this be something serious, and is there anything else I should try or be worried about?

It sounds like you might be dealing with a fungal infection, which is common in such areas. The use of Candid-B cream could help, but if the condition persists, its important to see a doctor for a proper diagnosis and possibly a more targeted treatment plan. Keeping the area dry and clean is also crucial for healing.

I'm dealing with a lot of hair fall here in Bangalore and I'm wondering if it's because of the hard water. Should I try using alum or fitkari in the water before I wash my hair? Also, I came across something called Mintop Pro and I'm curious if it's helpful. Are there any side effects I should know about? Would it be a good idea to start using Mintop Pro?
