I noticed my hairline is receding more on the right side near my temple compared to the left, which is still thick. There's some thinning starting in the right frontal area too. Would a hairline reduction surgery work for me? Is it a permanent solution, and is it available in India?

Hair can often recede more quickly or noticeably on one side. This is normally because hair follicles don't always progress at the exact same speeds or because genetics mean you are more likely to develop a receding hairline that looks a little uneven

I'm really struggling with a mouth ulcer that's been bothering me for the past three months. I've tried seeing a few different doctors, and they've prescribed a bunch of meds like Becosules, Oflox 200, Glenora gel, Lerobaet 500, Oraways gel, and Zincovit tablets. I've attached an image, but nothing seems to be working, and it's getting really uncomfortable. Any idea why this is happening or what else I can try for some relief?

I've noticed that my forehead is a lot darker than the rest of my face, and it's been like this for almost two years now. I initially thought it was just a tan and have tried all sorts of things, like getting regular facials and home remedies, but nothing seems to be working. Any advice on how I can fix this?
