I had laser surgery for wart removal but I'm still seeing bumps with black spots even after finishing my 5-day course of meds the doctor prescribed. When will this fully heal? The doctor scheduled a follow-up but should I keep taking the meds? I really want these warts gone completely without any marks are there better treatments or meds I should try?

This condition may require clinical evaluation to determine the exact cause and treatment. Some cases can be managed conservatively, while others may need surgical intervention depending on size, symptoms, and severity. Regular follow-up is important to monitor progress.

I've been experiencing severe hair loss lately and it's really worrying me. I did all sorts of blood tests and found out I have a vitamin D deficiency. My doctor suggested taking D Rise 60k, but I'm wondering if that's the only thing causing my hair loss. Should I consider seeing a homeopathic or Ayurvedic specialist for this? What else could be causing such drastic hair loss?

I've been using Patanjali toothpaste on my face to try and get rid of some pimples, but now my skin's super dry, really irritated, and parts feel like they're burning. What should I do to fix this, and is it safe to use toothpaste like that on the skin anyway?

I'm wondering if it's okay to put Deriva BPO gel just on my acne spots or scars, or should I go ahead and apply it to my whole face? I'm a bit concerned about how it might affect the rest of my skin if I use it all over. What do you recommend?

Deriva BPO gel can be applied to the full face, not just on acne or acne scars. It should be applied as a thin layer on the entire affected area once daily, preferably in the evening, after washing the face with a gentle cleanser. Remember to use sunscreen during the day as this product can increase sensitivity to sunlight.
