Question

I've been using Melacare cream for my acne scars for the past 7 months, and it's really helped lighten them and even my complexion by about 2 tones. But I'm worried because whenever I try to stop using it, my skin gets super irritated, I get lots of tiny white bumpy acne around my mouth, and my skin turns darker than it used to be. I'm 22 and also dealing with PCOS and a vitamin D deficiency. What can I do to solve this problem once and for all?

Question

I'm dealing with dandruff and hair fall, and I've suddenly started noticing some white hairs. I'm considering shaving my head. What do you think, is it a good idea? And is there any chance that shaving my head could make things worse or affect the way my hair grows back, considering the issues I'm already having?

Question

I've noticed a little bit of bleeding from my belly button since yesterday. It's just a tiny drop, and I don't have a fever. My blood sugar levels are stable too. Should I be concerned about this, or is it something that might resolve on its own? I'd love to get some insight on what might be happening.

Question

I've got this painful boil right near my butt crack close to the hole, and it's pretty swollen and really uncomfortable to sit. The pain isn't unbearable but definitely annoying, and it's been like this for a couple of days now. Do you know any creams, medications, or home remedies that could help?
