Chickenpox
Both of my kids had chickenpox at the same time last year (thank goodness!), one has no scarring or anything and completely clear but the other child has a few marks and one particularly on their face, what would you advise – as I am hoping that she is young enough for it to be sorted maybe? (Cather...

Nappy Rash
I have a 13 month old daughter that over the last couple of months seems to be getting more and more frequent bouts of nappy rash. I have tried numerous creams but nothing seems to keep it away. Can you give any advice? There is so much on the market that I feel I should be able to sort it myself wi...

Acne
My son is 13 and just developing spots – not sure if you would term this as acne… His father had acne when he was young and I am concerned that he might also develop this. My son is very reluctant to talk about it, let alone see a doctor but I managed to get him to the doctor who just said its his a...

Infant Eczema
Hi, my 14 month old has been diagnosed with eczema and I'm currently in the process of trying to find certain triggers in the hope that it will reduce the occurrence of flare ups. Really hoping this is successful! But I was just wondering what's the best way of treating eczema in a baby? Are there c...

Heat Rash
How can you tell the difference between a heat rash and something else such as a meningitis rash or measles rash for example? Thanks (Natalie)

Is ED linked with heart problems/diabetes?
I have read that ED is linked to heart problems and diabetes. Is this true? If so, will I be tested for these conditions when I visit my doctor? Thanks (Peter)

Unable to keep erection
I can get an erection but then I can't keep it. I really don’t want to go to the doctor to discuss with anyone as I'm too embarrassed, but I need to find a solution. Please help (Mike)

Hair thinning with age
I've always had quite thick hair, and never experienced hair loss/thinning before, but since turning 70 I've certainly noticed my hair has got a lot thinner and finer. I suppose it is just a symptom of the aging process but is there anything I can do to help with this? Thank you (Christine)

Post-COVID hair loss
I had covid a few months ago and have noticed my hair falling out - I have looked this up as a common symptom but can't see what I should be doing about it or is just wait for it to come back?

How can I help my son's sensitive skin?
My son (14) cannot dry his legs with any sort of towel (cotton or microfibre) and has to drip dry otherwise the skin on his legs becomes really painful, itchy and stings, so much so that he’s in tears for two hours afterwards. The same feeling occurs when he wears football socks or chinos but seems ...
