I'm 32 and really worried about this big patch of hair loss right in the middle of my head. It keeps getting bigger because my hair just won't stop falling out. I feel lost about how to tackle this. What should I do?

I've noticed these dark brown patches on my feet and ankles for the last few months. They're just therenot itching or spreading, but I'm kind of worried because they havent changed at all. Any idea what might be causing this and what I should do about it?

Dark spots and patches on your feet and ankles could be due to a condition called venous stasis dermatitis, which is caused by blood leaking out of veins and pooling under the skin, leaving behind a residue of hemoglobin that shows up as brown or rust-colored stains. Another possible cause is hemosiderin staining, which is a symptom of chronic venous insufficiency, a condition where veins have trouble sending blood back to the heart. To address this issue, consider elevating your legs when sitting or lying down, wearing compression stockings, and avoiding long periods of standing or sitting. It's essential to consult a doctor or dermatologist to determine the underlying cause and receive proper treatment, which may include lifestyle changes, medication, or laser treatment to fade the discoloration.

Im considering getting a cysteine treatment for my hair, and Im curious to know if its actually effective for hair fall. Ive also been dealing with a dry scalp. Would this treatment help with that too? Any advice would be appreciated!

Cysteine treatment can be beneficial for hair fall and dry scalp. Here's how: Hair Fall: 1. Strengthens hair roots: Cysteine helps to fortify hair roots, reducing the likelihood of hair fall. 2. Improves hair texture: Cysteine treatment can enhance hair elasticity, making it less prone to breakage. 3. Reduces split ends: By repairing and restoring hair bonds, cysteine treatment can minimize split ends, which can contribute to hair fall. Dry Scalp: 1. Moisturizes the scalp: Cysteine treatment can help hydrate the scalp, reducing dryness and itchiness. 2. Reduces dandruff: The antifungal and antibacterial properties of cysteine can help control dandruff and other scalp issues. 3. Soothes irritation: Cysteine's anti-inflammatory properties can calm irritated scalp areas, reducing redness and discomfort. Before undergoing cysteine treatment, consider the following: 1. Consult a professional: Book an appointment with a dermatologist or trichologist to discuss your hair and scalp concerns.

I'm really concerned about my hair situation lately. Over the past two months, I've been losing more hair than usual, and my scalp has started to show through. Also, I've noticed a couple of black spots on my scalp. I'm really hoping you can offer some advice on how I can deal with these spots and also prevent any further hair loss. Looking forward to hearing your thoughts.

You can try using minoxidil solution 5% applied to the scalp twice daily. Additionally, taking biotin supplements 10,000 mcg daily can help promote hair growth. For the black spots on your scalp, you can use ketoconazole shampoo twice a week to help with any fungal infections that may be causing the spots. If the black spots persist, it is important to consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and management.
