Can I have my biotin supplement 10000 mcg with milk or is that a no-go? And is it true that taking 10000 mcg of biotin every day might actually cause hair loss?

Biotin Dosage: Taking a 10,000 mcg biotin supplement is generally safe but is a high dose. Most people get sufficient biotin from their diet.
 - 
Milk Interaction: Biotin is water-soluble and does not typically interact negatively with milk.
 - 
Consultation: It's advisable to consult a healthcare provider before starting high-dose supplements, especially if experiencing hair loss.
 - 
Lab Tests: Inform your healthcare provider about biotin intake as it can interfere with certain lab tests.

My husband has this heat boil on his inner thigh, right near the groin. It's pretty painful, and we're wondering if there's any ointment we can use to help reduce the boil and ease the pain. Any advice would be appreciated!
For treating a heat boil near the groin area, you can apply an antibiotic ointment like Neosporin or Bacitracin. Apply a thin layer of the ointment to the affected area 2-3 times a day. Additionally, you can also use a warm compress to help reduce pain and promote drainage of the boil. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry to prevent further infection.
