Question 1

I'm a 21-year-old girl and last November and December, I suffered from typhoid. Since I started recovering fully in January, Ive noticed that my hair is falling out a lot. I used to have long, thick hair, but now its really thinning, and I can even see bald spots. I'm worried and I really dont want to shave my head. How long can I expect it to take for my hair to grow back to normal, and is there anything I can do to speed up the process? Will not shaving be a problem?

The symptoms you are describing sound like you may have a localized skin infection on the tip of your nose. This could be due to a bacterial infection or inflammation of the hair follicles. To help treat this, you can apply an over-the-counter antibiotic ointment like Neosporin on the affected area twice a day. Additionally, you can take an over-the-counter pain reliever like ibuprofen to help with the pain and swelling. If the symptoms do not improve within a few days or if they worsen, it would be best to consult a doctor for further evaluation and possible prescription of oral antibiotics.

Question 5

I'm wondering if I can take MICRODOX LBX tablets again without a doctor's advice. They helped me before with skin pimples. Are there any side effects I should be aware of?

Accepted Answer

MICRODOX LBX tablet is a combination medication that contains Doxycycline and Lactobacillus. It is commonly used to treat acne and other bacterial infections. However, it is important to note that antibiotics like Doxycycline should not be taken without a doctor's prescription, as they can have potential side effects and may not be suitable for everyone

Question 6

I've got really sensitive and dry skin, especially with this winter weather. My T-zone is full of blackheads and it's driving me nuts. I've been using Dr. Reddy's Venusia cream and Episoft cleansing face wash, but it doesn't seem to be helping much. ...

Accepted Answer

For your blackheads in the T-zone area, I recommend using a night cream containing adapalene and benzoyl peroxide. You can try using Differin Gel at night. Additionally, for a good scrub to help with blackheads, you can use Neutrogena Blackhead Eliminating Daily Scrub. To address the dead cells on your body, you can use a moisturizing body lotion such as Cetaphil Moisturizing Cream or Bio-Oil. These products will help hydrate your skin and improve its texture. For your dry, rough hands and feet, you can try using O'Keeffe's Working Hands Hand Cream and O'Keeffe's Healthy Feet Foot Cream. These products are specifically designed to moisturize and repair dry, cracked skin. In addition to using these products, make sure to drink plenty of water, eat a healthy diet rich in fruits and vegetables, and protect your skin from harsh weather conditions. Regularly exfoliating and moisturizing your skin will also help improve its overall health and appearance.
