If you have scabies mites that may be in your clothes, you should wash them with hot water. Particularities of using Pyrethrum medicine include dry skin so the cream can make better contact and stay for about 8-14 hours before rinsing off. Camphor-infused coconut oil may help, albeit, it's not the main solution for scabies. Ensure that the prescribed medicines are correctly used along with the usual medicines.  As much as possible, always wash clothes in hot water. For more advice, you can consult a dermatologist.

I am 22years old female and have acne or my face for last few years. I have not taken any treatment before this. And my one more thing is I have acne which are filled filled with pus, kindly suggest me what to do? How I can get rid of it?

Female | 22

Acne can cause by hormonal changes, stress, genetics, or other factors. If you have acne that is filled with pus, it is likely that you have an infection. Consult a dermatologist as soon as possible in order to get the proper treatment. You may need topical medication, an antibiotic or other treatment to get rid of the infection and reduce the breakouts. Keep your skin clean and moisturized, avoid touching your face again and again, and limit your exposure to dust and pollution.

Can I take glutathione for skin whitening

Male | 15

Glutathione isn't FDA approved for skin lightening.. Limited research available.. Possible side effects.. Discuss with doctor.. it is IMPORTANT to note that the use of glutathione for skin lightening comes with SERIOUS risks.. While it is MARKETED as a "natural" alternative to traditional skin lightening treatments, there is NO conclusive evidence to support its effectiveness.. The FDA HAS NOT approved glutathione for skin lightening purposes, which means that its safety and effectiveness have NOT been thoroughly tested

is using the spoon already used by stranger cause any skin problems like shape change?

Male | 24

Using a stranger's spoon won't instantly cause unusual patterns to appear on your skin. However, it is possible to develop skin issues like infections or rashes. Your skin may show irritation through symptoms such as redness, itching, or swelling. To prevent this, it's best to always use your own spoon and sanitize it properly. If irritation does occur, applying a soothing skincare lotion can help calm the skin.

My boyfriend has an infected wound in his calf which started of as a small itchy spot that later became a red spot and later an infected wound that's made his the surrounding area swollen right down to his ankles. The glands in his groin are now painful too. Please advise what type of antibiotic would be suitable for this?

Male | 41

Your boyfriend may have a severe skin infection that’s spreading. The redness, swelling, and pain—coupled with swollen glands in the groin—indicate that it might be a bacterial infection. To cure this, he may require a course of antibiotics such as penicillin or cephalosporin which can help to fight off the infection. It is important to seek medical attention as soon as possible to avoid further complications.

I'm 23 year old male and itching in my private area, more effected in my left side and also there is one pimples i.e Zakhm below my p***s and between two testis, but this zakham is just 3 days old but itching happening more than 1 month and when itching is uncontrollable I rub that place and due to this it upper layer skin removed, and I also apply Aloevera+ ginger paste and some cream and powder but this not make much effective and

Male | 23

Seems like the problem is fungal in the intimate area. This is what's causing the itching and the pimple-like bump. The most important thing is to keep the area clean and dry so the healing can take place. Avoid rubbing or scratching the area as it can make it worse. You can try using an antifungal cream to help clear up the infection. Make sure to wear loose-fitting underwear and don't wear tight clothing as this will result in faster healing of the area.

Dandruff and itching in scalp and notice some hairs breaking with white end and dry lips

Male | 24

These symptoms are usually signs of dry scalp. Dry lips can result from dehydration. This may come from the usage of strong hair products, insufficient water intake, or a poor diet. You can help it by using a mild shampoo, drinking more water, and eating foods that are rich in healthy fats.
