I have a pyogenic granuloma on my scalp and I'm really worried about it. Can this be treated without surgery? Also, is there any chance this could be a type of cancer? I'd really appreciate some clarity on this.

A pyogenic granuloma may not be harmful, but it can certainly disrupt daily life—especially if it bleeds frequently or is in a tricky location. Fortunately, there are effective treatments available, and with the right care, healing is usually straightforward.

View allI recently had my first session of fractional CO2 laser treatment, and about 20 days later, I had to spend some time outside in the sun for work. I did use sunscreen, but my skin still seems to have been affected. It's red and feels really tight. I'm kind of worried and wondering if I should use Fucidin cream now. Is the damage permanent, or can it be fixed? Would really appreciate some advice.
Kozicure cream for local application is advised for 3-6 weeks , at bedtime ,if any side-effects dermat opinion is advised .

I've been using Lumaglo for about three weeks, and now my skin has turned red. Plus, it's started peeling off in small layers, leaving these white patches. It's almost like the affected areas are turning black too. I'm really worried about what's happening. Could you please help me understand what's going on and what I should do about it?

I'm considering using Candid B lotion on my scalp as my doctor suggested it for dandruff, but I'm a bit worried. Can it actually lead to hair fall?
Candid B lotion, containing clotrimazole and betamethasone, can be used on the scalp for dandruff, but prolonged use or excessive application may lead to hair loss, itching, or other scalp issues, so use it as directed by your doctor and monitor your scalp's response.
