I got into a road accident a couple of months back and ended up with some pretty bad wounds on my hands and elbows. They've healed now, but I'm left with these dark scars. Do you know of any ointment that can help get rid of these scars?

I'm a bit confused about how to use the propysalic nf lotion that was prescribed for my scalp condition. Should I be applying it just to my scalp, or is it okay to get some on my hair too? I'm not sure since I have medium length hair and don't want to do it wrong. Could you clarify how I should be applying it?

Propysalic NF lotion is a topical treatment for scalp conditions like psoriasis, dandruff, or seborrheic dermatitis. *Application Instructions* 1. *Wash your hair*: Before applying the lotion, wash your hair with a mild shampoo. 2. *Towel-dry*: Gently towel-dry your hair, making sure it's not soaking wet. 3. *Apply to scalp*: Use the lotion only on your scalp, avoiding the hair shafts as much as possible. 4. *Massage gently*: Massage the lotion into your scalp using your fingertips. 5. *Leave it on*: Leave the lotion on for the recommended time, usually 30 minutes to an hour, before rinsing. *Tips for Medium-Length Hair* 1. *Section your hair*: Divide your hair into sections to make it easier to apply the lotion to your scalp. 2. *Use a scalp massager*: A scalp massager can help you apply the lotion more evenly and massage it into your scalp. 3. *Avoid over-applying*: Be careful not to apply too much lotion, as this can weigh your hair down and make it greasy.

I'm really concerned about a new mole I found behind my left ear. I saw a dermatologist and she told me its not cancerous, thankfully. She gave me a mole removal cream, and I've been using it for a few days now. It looks like it's getting smaller, which is a relief, but it barely itches. Im still worried if there's any risk of cancer. Also, if it completely fades away, should I still be worried down the line?
