I'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.

View allI've noticed that the skin around the outside of my right toenail has gotten really soft and there's this watery liquid forming. Is this something I should be worried about, like an infection, and what steps should I take to treat it?
This sounds like you may have a paronychia, which is an infection of the skin around the toenail. You can try soaking your foot in warm water with Epsom salts a few times a day to help reduce the infection. You can also apply an antibiotic ointment like Neosporin to the affected area. If the infection is severe or does not improve, you may need to see a doctor for further treatment.

I'm really struggling with exfoliative cheilitis that I've had for about 12 years. The entire layer of skin on my upper and lower lips keeps peeling, and it's so sore and red underneath. I've got loads of Fordyce spots on my top lip too. I've tried attaching some pictures of my lips before. Nothing seems to work. I've tried almost every medication - tacrolimus, clobetasol, mometasone, Calendula ointment, and even Sebamed lip balm. None of these topical treatments have made any difference. I even went through a multivitamin course, hoping it would help, but no luck. I tried leaving my lips alone without peeling them, but that just made things worse, with them becoming more inflamed. The skin turns white when it gets wet and peels every day. I've seen many dermatologists who've prescribed creams, but nothing has worked so far. Is there any kind of surgical option that might help since the treatments just aren't doing anything?
Thats unusual,visit General Physician for appropriate approach.and maintain balanced diet and healthy lifestyle

I'm feeling really uncomfortable because yesterday night I scratched my testicles and now they're all red and have rashes. I tried putting some coconut oil on them, but it hasnt really helped much. Could you suggest any medicine or treatment that might work?
This could be fungal infection u need to evaluate with your Dermatologist and get appropriate treatment with oral antifungal medications and topical lotions,once the infection is resolved your hair fall would come down,I suggest you not to use minoxidil with active fungal infection,above this your personal hygiene care is more important.
