I'm really worried about my hair. It seems like my hair is getting thinner and falling out more than ever. Every time I use oil or any of those hair nourishment products, the situation just worsens. It's really freaking me out. Do you have any idea why this might be happening and what I can do to stop my hair from falling out?
Hair fall can be caused by various factors such as stress, nutritional deficiencies, hormonal imbalances, or underlying health conditions. In your case, it seems like you may be experiencing a reaction to the hair products you are using. I recommend stopping the use of those products and switching to a gentle and nourishing shampoo. Additionally, you can try using Minoxidil solution on your scalp to promote hair growth. Make sure to follow the recommended dosage and application instructions. It's also important to maintain a healthy diet rich in vitamins and minerals essential for hair health. If the problem persists, consider consulting a dermatologist for further evaluation.

I've been struggling with dry and scaly skin on my knuckles, and no matter how much I use moisturizer cream, it just doesn't go away. Unfortunately, there's no good dermatologist where I live. Can you suggest a solution? If there's a cream you recommend, could you please mention the brand name, preferably one that's easy to find even in smaller places?
You may be dealing with a condition like eczema or psoriasis. In this case, I recommend trying a cream containing 1% hydrocortisone, such as Cortizone-10. Apply a thin layer to the affected area twice a day for up to 2 weeks. Additionally, you can use a moisturizer like Cetaphil Restoraderm Skin Restoring Body Moisturizer to keep the skin hydrated. Remember to consult a healthcare professional if the symptoms persist or worsen.
