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 been using garlic to try and get rid of a mole on my face, but now I'm really worried. After an hour, my skin got burnt and turned red. It dried up and I could peel it off, but now it looks black. I've been applying sebo de macho, but it doesn't seem to help. What should I do?
It seems like you may have experienced a skin reaction from using garlic to remove your mole. The black color could indicate a scab or potential skin damage. I recommend you stop using sebo de macho and instead apply an antibiotic cream like Neosporin to prevent infection. You can also use aloe vera gel to soothe the burned skin. Additionally, consider taking an over-the-counter pain reliever like ibuprofen to help with any discomfort. Make sure to keep the area clean and avoid picking at the scab to prevent scarring. If the symptoms worsen or do not improve, please consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and treatment.

I've had this pea-sized lump on my bikini line for almost two years now. It sometimes oozes pus, and while I've had similar ones before, they've never lasted this longusually just a week or so. This one feels hard and sometimes shrinks a lot, but then it puffs back up again. Should I be worried about it, and what could it possibly be?
It sounds like you may have a recurrent abscess in your bikini area. I recommend using an antibiotic ointment like Neosporin and applying it to the affected area twice a day after cleaning it with mild soap and water. You can also take an over-the-counter pain reliever like ibuprofen to help with any discomfort. If the lump does not improve or if you develop a fever, please seek medical attention for further evaluation and possible drainage of the abscess.

I'm 21 and have been dealing with scabies for like 8 months now. I've tried a bunch of creams like permethrin and lindane, but nothing works anymore. The red bumps just keep coming back on my scrotum and penis after a few days of any treatment. Can you suggest something that could really fix this for good so it doesnt return again?
