I was caught in the rain yesterday and got soaked from head to toe. Today, I've noticed a red rash around my butt cheek. Is this something I should be worried about? Could it be from staying in wet clothes too long, and what would be the best way to treat it?

View allI'm 25 and have been dealing with heavy hair fall recently. It's getting to the point where the front upper center of my scalp is pretty visible and it's making me really worried. My hair is thinning, feels weak, and the density is just so low now. What can I do to stop this hair fall quickly? What steps should I consider taking to address this?
For superficial hypertrophic scars, you can try using Contractubex gel. Apply a thin layer of Contractubex gel on the affected area 2-3 times a day for at least 3 months for optimal results. Make sure to gently massage the gel into the scar. Additionally, you can also consider silicone gel sheets which have been shown to be effective in reducing hypertrophic scars.

I'm dealing with Grade 1 acne around my chin, jawline, and cheeks. I'm using Clindac A1 gel in the morning for a couple of hours and Deriva Cms Gel at night, also for a few hours before washing it off. The doctor also put me on Doxy 1 ldr forte, 100 mg, twice a day for 10 days. I'm really hoping to get rid of this acne completely. Could you tell me how long it might take, and if there's a chance this will leave any scars?

I've got this burn on my right hand from spilling hot water a while back. I've been using silverkind ointment as the doctor suggested, but now I'm seeing these red pigments pop up and there's this constant itching. Is this normal, or should I be worried?
It sounds like you may be experiencing an allergic reaction to the silver sulfadiazine in the Silverkind ointment. I recommend stopping the ointment immediately and washing the affected area with mild soap and water. You can apply a topical corticosteroid cream like Hydrocortisone 1% cream to reduce inflammation and itching. Additionally, taking an oral antihistamine like Cetirizine 10mg once daily can help with the itching. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please consult your doctor for further evaluation and management.
