Question

I'm really worried because I tried using a mix of grated garlic, castor oil, and turmeric on my acne overnight, but I ended up burning my skin. I saw a dermatologist and she gave me a cream that helped peel the burnt skin off, but now there's a dark black spot that's been there for almost a month. She suggested using golite cream for it, but I'm not seeing any improvements. I need to get rid of this scar urgently since my brother's wedding is in the first week of June. Can you suggest anything that might work quickly?

Question

I've been dealing with a lot of hair fall ever since I recovered from chickenpox about two months ago. It's winter here in India, and I'm also struggling with dandruff. I've noticed that the hair I lose often has a white bulb at the end. What can I do to help stop the hair fall and fix these issues?

Question

I've been dealing with a skin issue for about 3 months now. I was using a betamethasone cream on my face, but then I noticed it started turning my face redder and redder. My doctor mentioned I was using a really strong steroid cream on my face, and now I'm not sure how to fix this. My cheeks are constantly red, though there's no itching or irritation. When I go outside, it gets even redder. I'm using Desowen lotion and Emodel lotion for cleansing, but I'm really scared about my skin. It's affecting my confidence, and sometimes I don't even want to leave the house. Can you give me some advice on what I should do?

Question

So, I'm dealing with jock itch on my inner thighs and I'm wondering if it's still okay to keep up with my exercise routine. Is there any chance that working out could make it spread even more? I'm kind of worried about making it worse.
