View allI've been wearing glasses for 15 years and now have deep marks on my nose along with dark circles. Would surgery help fix the dark circles and nose indents or are there other options I should consider first?
While surgery can address nose indentations from glasses and some types of dark circles, it's not always the first or best option. Consider non-surgical treatments for the nose, and a range of options for dark circles before jumping to surgery.

I've been using Finasteride for the past 10 days to treat my androgenetic alopecia. But I've read about a bunch of potential side effects and now I'm feeling a bit anxious about continuing it. Is there an alternative to Finasteride, or is it safe to keep using it? If I stick with it, how can I manage the side effects?

My head always feels really hot, and I'm not sure why. I'm a bit worried and wondering if there's something I could do to help with this. I've been using coconut oil dailycould that be affecting it? Any advice or solution would be appreciated.
Excessive head heat can be due to various factors like stress, anxiety, hormonal imbalances, or poor scalp circulation; to alleviate this, try applying coconut oil mixed with a few drops of peppermint or lavender essential oil to your scalp, practice stress-reducing techniques like meditation, yoga, or deep breathing exercises, maintain a healthy diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains, and consider incorporating herbal teas like chamomile, hibiscus, or green tea to help regulate body temperature and promote relaxation.
