Is a burning sensation on the scalp normal after using an anti-dandruff shampoo?
Gosh! I get this too! I thought I was the only one and I was allergic to the shampoo! Do you know what causes it? I get in after using Head and Shoulders.

How do you cure ingrown hairs 'below the belt'?
To cure, one also need to know the cause.
These days a lot of people shave their pubic hairs away.
The shavers pull the hairs up/out slightly before cutting them, this to leave a very smooth surface.
When hairs carry on growing after this, they might get "stuck" below skin level and this is considered "ingrown".
It is not pleasant as the place might get infected.
If you manage to get hold of the hair with a tweezer, then simply pulling it out all together will take away the entire problem. repeat for all ingrown hair.
Maybe not very pleasant, but atleast not dangerous :-)
Eventually, time will make hair grow out again, but you might want to use something to help with any infection.
Making a 5-10% solution of Teatree oil and Grapeseed or Sunflower oil is ideal for this.
The Teatree oil has got natural antibacterial properties and in addition anti fungal properties. It smells a bit, so depending on your plans for the day/evening you can concider alternatives.
Be aware to not use pure Teatree oil as this will sting and burn.
If you are allergic to teatree oil, then chanses are you should not use it.
Ask a pharmasist for a bactereakilling cream.

She needs medical help.

What are the red and white small bumps on your entire arm and upper leg?
Answer
A friend who is also a nurse told me that these bumps arise when your body is lacking in the Omega-3 Fatty Acids. I have been eating avocados, which have the Omega-3 fatty acids, regularly and have noticed vast improvement though the rash is still there. I plan to supplement with Flaxseed oil. Fish is also rich in the Omega-3 Fatty Acids.
