Can someone with a fatty liver take terbicip? I'm dealing with a fungal infection around my inner thighs and my doctor prescribed terbicip, which I've been using for the past month. I've noticed that if I miss a dose, the itching becomes really intense. I'm worried about the impact of terbicip on my liver condition, so Id love to get your advice.

  1. Safety of Terbicip with Fatty Liver:

    • Terbicip (Terbinafine 1%) is generally safe for topical use in patients with fatty liver. However, monitor for any unusual symptoms and consult your doctor if concerned.
  2. Increased Itching When Missing a Dose:

    • Missing a dose can allow the fungal infection to regain strength, leading to increased itching and symptom flare-up. Consistent application is crucial for effective treatment.
  3. Adherence to Treatment:

    • Regular application as prescribed is essential to control the infection and prevent recurrence.
  4. Monitoring Liver Health:

    • While topical Terbinafine has minimal systemic absorption, it's wise to monitor liver health. Report any signs of liver issues, such as jaundice or fatigue, to your doctor.
  5. Consultation:

    • If you experience side effects or have concerns, consult your prescribing doctor for guidance.

Yes it works and might take minimum 3 sessions to see change and total number of sittings depends on how deep your scars are

I've been hearing mixed opinions about whey protein and its link to hair loss. My dermatologist told me that my hair loss might be due to whey protein, but most of my friends who also take it haven't had any issues. Could you advise if it's really safe to keep consuming whey protein?

Whey protein is generally safe, but excessive consumption may potentially contribute to hair loss due to increased dihydrotestosterone (DHT) levels, although more research is needed to confirm this link.

I'm really concerned about this bruise on my face. A week ago, I fell and hit my cheekbone pretty hard. At first, it was just bruised there, but now the bruising has spread all around my eye, and my eyelids and part of my cheek are this purple-green color. The swelling has gone down quite a bit, but there's still some, and I have this lump on my cheekbone that just won't go away. Could it be a hematoma? What's the best way to take care of this bruise and lump?

Sorry to hear that! _Bruising and Swelling_ 1. _Normal progression_: Bruising can spread and change colors as it heals. 2. _Swelling reduction_: Significant reduction in swelling is a good sign. _Lump on Cheekbone_ 1. _Possible hematoma_: A collection of blood that can cause a lump. 2. _Other possibilities_: Fat necrosis, bone fracture, or soft tissue injury. _Care and Treatment_ 1. _Cold compresses_: Continue applying cold compresses to reduce swelling. 2. _Elevation_: Keep your head elevated to reduce swelling. 3. _Pain management_: Use over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen or ibuprofen. 4. _Monitor for infection_: Watch for signs of infection, such as increased redness, warmth, or pus. 5. _Follow-up appointment_: Schedule a follow-up appointment with your doctor to assess the lump and bruising. _When to Seek Immediate Medical Attention_ 1. _Increased swelling or pain_ 2. _Vision changes or double vision_ 3. _Difficulty moving your eye or face_ 4. _Signs of infection_
