Question

I've been dealing with this issue for quite some time, where my lips need Vaseline almost every 15 minutes. If I skip applying it, my lips get dry, sore, and really irritating. It's starting to affect my daily life and I'm not sure if a doctor could offer any help for this. Is it just me or is there something I can do to fix it?

Dry lips would be result of vitamin deficiency or dehydration,rule out appropriate cause and use moisturizer often,don't hurry to move.

Question

I'm really worried about my hair. It's thinning a lot on the top and front, and I have dandruff. Plus, I've noticed some white hairs, even when I shave, and this is all happening in my teenage years. Is there something wrong, and what can I do about it?

Question

I've been using mx2 solution and Hairgro serum on and off for a year, and they worked well for a while. But recently, I've noticed a lot of hair loss again over the past couple of months. Could the medication be causing this? Should I stop using it? And do you think it'll get worse if I stop?

Question

I've been dealing with a really red and irritated rash along my mustache line, and it's super dry and itchy. Recently, I also noticed a lump on the right side of my jaw, and I can't figure out why it's there. Plus, my acne seems to be getting worse. I've been using moisturizer and washing my face with 10% benzoyl peroxide, but I've avoided using it in the rashy area for months. I first noticed the dryness and flakiness around the start of the year. Any idea what's going on or what I should do?
