Urticaria in toddler

My son 3 year old started having itchy bumps last week which would last for few hours, his pediatrician prescribed Hicope syrup to treat allergy for 3days. During these 3 days when I was giving him syrup he dint get any allergy, but once the prescribed doses were over, he started getting allergy again and we are asked to continue with same syrup plus calapure lotion. How long urticaria lasts in toddler? Im unable to find the trigger for this. Is continuing the medication for long time cause no harm?

Persistent itching and rash in genital

​I am a 17-year-old male experiencing persistent itching and redness in my groin/genital area. This has been going on for approximately [6-7months]. I have not applied any creams, lotions, or medications to the affected area yet. The skin in that area appears [irritating iching and burning ]. This discomfort is affecting my daily routine. Please advise on what this could be and what the appropriate next steps or treatment options are. Should I use an over-the-counter cream, or do I need a physical examination?

Severe Baldness and Receding hairline

I am writing to schedule a consultation regarding a persistent hair loss issue. For quite some time now, I have been experiencing significant hair fall, and I have noticed that my hairline has receded considerably. The thinning is becoming quite noticeable, and I am concerned about further hair loss. I would like to get a proper diagnosis to understand the root cause (whether it is genetic, nutritional, or stress-related) and start an effective treatment plan. Please let me know your availability for an appointment. I will bring along any recent blood test reports if required. Thank you for your time and guidance. Best regards, Mukesh kumar

Dutasteride for hair loss/hair fall

A trichologist prescribed DUMAN /dutasteride to control hairfall also told that may need to take long term. Along with this Minoxidil 10% is also given. My question is if long term how long would the patient need to take this medicine “DUMAN”? Are there any side effects? A known lady friend told me that she took it when prescribed by a doctor and once she stopped it her all effects were reversed. Kindly clarify if there are side effects. Also when the medication will be stopped will it give any reverse effects. The patient doesn't have any medical issue, is absolutely fit doesn't consume any junk food.All Blood reports are normal too. Only iron is low for which she is taking tab as prescribed. Thank you in advance
