Natural Reversal:
- Grey hair turning back to black naturally is rare, especially at 40.
- Hair greying is due to reduced melanin production.
-
Factors to Consider:
a. Health and Nutrition:- Deficiencies (e.g., Vitamin B12) or thyroid issues can cause premature greying.
- Addressing these may improve hair pigmentation.
b. Stress Levels: - High stress can impact hair color.
-
Restoration Options:
- Hair Dyes: Safest and most effective method for restoring black color.
- Consultation: Seek advice from a dermatologist if greying is sudden or patchy.
Summary:
Natural reversal is uncommon; focus on nutrition and health for hair support. Use hair dye for cosmetic restoration.

View allI'm having issues with my tongue the skin is peeling, it's really painful, and I can't eat anything. Could you recommend any medicine for this? Do you think those Vitamin C chewable tablets would be helpful?
Could be due to a condition called oral mucositis. Vitamin C chewable tablets may not directly help with this issue. I recommend using a topical oral gel containing a local anesthetic like lidocaine to help with the pain and a mouthwash containing a mild antiseptic like chlorhexidine gluconate to prevent infection. Additionally, you can take over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen for pain relief. If the symptoms persist, please consult a doctor for further evaluation and management.

Dermat opinion is advised to the patient.
