I'm looking for advice on how to heal wounds more quickly. Are there any medications or tablets that can help speed up the healing process when used alongside regular dressing? Also, is Betadine an effective ointment for treating small wounds? Any guidance would be appreciated!

For healing wounds faster, some tablets that may be prescribed include Sigmoilalm and Ciprofloxacin. Along with these tablets, general dressing and proper wound care are essential for promoting effective wound healing and preventing infection.

Question

I'm a bit confused about something and was hoping for some guidance. When it comes to using Regaine, should it be applied after using hair oil, or is it supposed to go on beforehand? What's the right way to use it?

Question

I'm dealing with mild acne and have noticed that my skin tends to be pretty dry. I'm thinking about using Alograce cream at night to help with the dryness, but I'm a bit unsure if it's suitable for acne or if it will actually help moisturize my skin. Could you give me some advice on whether this is a good idea or if there's something better I should consider?

Question

I've been dealing with this annoying fungal infection on my back for about 6 months now, and I'm in the UAE. I'm using TRAVOCORT cream as the doctor recommended, and it seems to work for a few days, but then the itching and irritation come back. I've noticed the symptoms seem to get worse when I eat non-veg foods like chicken, fish, or mutton, which is really frustrating. Can you help me figure out what's going on and how I can get some relief? It's becoming really uncomfortable.
