Hi Doctor, getting itching on whole body after shower but No rashes on body. I went to dermatologist..she gave Bilastine tablet 20mg but no use.. Still facing same problem.. Could you please advise.. Which medicine is the best to avoid this body itching after showering? Actually I visit the clinic for hair growth she gave Minoxidil solution. It's been 5 months I don't see hair growth.. Can I stop using Minoxidil ?
