Question 1

I've been dealing with burning and dry skin on my lips for a couple of months now. At first, I thought they were just chapped, so I tried using lip scrubs and chap stick, but nothing seems to help. I'm starting to worry, could this be a ringworm? How can I tell if that's what it is?

Accepted Answer

Yes you can have it no problem

Question 2

I'm a 31-year-old guy dealing with male hereditary baldness. My doctor prescribed Finax for it, but I'm a bit uncertain about which brand of 1 mg Finax tablets would be the best choice. Any advice would be really helpful!

Accepted Answer

There are many good brands of Finasteride that can be helpful for androgenetic alopecia. Finax, Finast, Finara, Finalo, and Fincar are all commonly used brands.

Question 3

I'm 26 and I've noticed that my hairline is receding, especially around my temples. I saw a dermatologist and they recommended I use Hair Joy 5 Minoxidil foam. I've started using it, but I'm experiencing a rapid heartbeat and I'm getting anxious about possibly having chest pain. I really want to keep using the minoxidil, but the side effects, especially the palpitations, are really worrying me. What should I do?

Accepted Answer

If you are experiencing rapid heartbeats and are worried about chest pain, you should discuss this with your dermatologist. They may recommend adjusting the dosage or trying a different formulation of minoxidil. In the meantime, you can consider using a different hair growth product such as "Rogaine" foam which contains minoxidil and is known to have fewer side effects. The recommended dosage for Rogaine foam is usually 1g applied to the affected area twice daily. Remember to always follow the instructions provided by your healthcare provider.

I woke up this morning with a blister filled with what seems like water on my left leg. I'm unsure why this happened or if I need to see a doctor about it. Any ideas on what could have caused this or what I should do?

That could be heat boil or any sort of insect bite, do not try to squeeze it, visit surgeon for appropriate management
