How exactly should I use this Salactin paint for my warts? Do I need to soak them in water first, or should I just apply it directly on them? I'm a bit unsure about the proper way.

View allI'm 21 and my hair's been getting really thin lately. It's to the point where, if I put oil on, it looks kinda like I'm balding, but without oil, it seems more or less normal. My family's hair history doesn't include baldness, so I'm confused. Could it be a lack of protein, moisture, or is DHT the culprit here? I really want to get my hair thick again. Also, I was wearing a helmet a lot recently, and I think that made my hair dry and rough, turning it somewhat brown. I tried oiling it, and it's a bit silkier now, but still thin. Why is this happening, and how can I make my hair thick again?

I have these large warts above my lower back and they're really bothering me. Is there any medication or treatment that can get rid of them without needing surgery? I'm worried about how big they are and would prefer to avoid an operation if possible.

My mom's been using Medisalic ointment during the winter months, and she's noticed that brown spots start showing up on her face. It's weird because she uses the same ointment in the summer and doesn't get these spots. Her skin's also pretty dry. Could you help us figure out why this might be happening? We're really puzzled about what's going on.
The brown spots may be due to the combination of medication, winter dryness, and increased sun sensitivity. Protecting the skin with sunscreen, using the ointment sparingly, and ensuring proper hydration can help manage this issue. If the problem persists or gets worse, its always a good idea to seek further advice from a dermatologist to tailor the treatment specifically to her skin type.
