Question

I was recently told I have telogen effluvium and even though my hair fall has calmed down, I'm using this serum with procapil, baicapil, and anagain thats really making my seborrheic dermatitis flare up badly. It's making my scalp super inflamed wherever I put it on. I'm really thinking about quitting the serum, but I'm scared if I stop it, I'll start shedding again. Do you think it's okay to stop using it, or could that just make things worse?

Question

I'm really concerned because I'm losing around 300 to 400 strands of hair every day. It's like, whenever I comb, touch, or wash my hair, I'm shedding so much. Plus, I'm dealing with dandruff and dead skin too, even if I skip washing my hair for just a day. What's going on here? How can I stop this hair fall and maybe even regrow my hair? It's starting to really worry me.

Question

I just found two small blood blisters close to each other on my hand. I've been out in the garden, so I'm wondering if it might be some kind of bite. I didn't feel any pain when it happened and wasn't wearing a glove on that hand. Should I be worried about this?

Question

I'm really worried about this ringworm situation. It's spread to different parts of my body, and I've tried everything from fluconazole to tarabinafine and all sorts of creams. Right now, I'm using something called zalim lotion. Is there something I might be missing or another treatment I should consider?
