View allI'm dealing with iron deficiency and was taking Ferrium XT for it. But ever since I started, I've been breaking out with acne on my face. Do you know of any iron supplements that might not have this side effect of acne or pimples?
You can try taking Ferglow tablets, which are a gentle iron supplement that is less likely to cause side effects like acne or pimples. The recommended dosage is one tablet daily, but please consult with your healthcare provider before starting any new medication.

I was in an accident recently and ended up with 3 stitches just above my lips, right below my nose. The stitches are healing well, but I'm really concerned about the scar that's forming. Could you recommend an ointment or cream that would help with scar removal? I'm just a bit anxious about this and would love some advice.
You can use Mederma ointment for scar removal. Apply a thin layer of Mederma ointment on the scar area 3 times a day for at least 8 weeks to see improvement in the appearance of the scar.

I've been dealing with some really bad dandruff lately. It's not just in my scalp but the whole nose area too, which has turned red, hard, and dry. The scales that come off are either white or yellowish, and they seem kind of oily. Plus, I've got these painful boils on my nose that just won't go away. And there's a lot of itching and hairfall. I'm really worried about all thiswhat could be causing it, and how can I get some relief?
