I accidentally burned my upper lip with wax while lighting a lantern, and the burn marks have been there for about two weeks now. Theyre quite visible, and Im getting worried. Could you suggest some remedies to help with the healing or reducing the marks on my lips?

Question

I'm dealing with a hair fall issue and just picked up some Indulekha hair oil, but I'm worried if it's actually a good match for my hair type. How can I find out if it's suitable for me?

I've got this thin light black-brown line right in the middle of my left thumb, and I dont feel any pain or itching from it. I cant recall injuring my thumb, though. I talked to a doctor, but not a Dermatologist. He guessed it was some fungal infection, so I took medicine for a week. The line hasnt disappeared or gotten darker, but the doctor said it looked slightly lighter and told me not to worry about it. It doesnt appear on any other fingers on my hands or feet. Should I be concerned about this line? Should I get a second opinion, maybe from a Dermatologist? Is it something that needs urgent attention?

Question

I've been having an issue since I used Veet hair removal cream on my bikini area. It's been really itchy and I'm pretty sure I've got ringworms now. What can I do to deal with this, and should I be worried about using hair removal creams down there in the future?
