I'm 39 years old and have been dealing with chickenpox for the last couple of days. The blisters are all over my body, especially on my face. I've heard about using Dettol antiseptic liquid for bathing, and I'm wondering if that's okay while I'm dealing with such severe symptoms. I'm just worried about whether it might irritate my skin more or if it could help sanitize those blisters a bit. Any advice would be really appreciated.

Question

I'm dealing with hair loss and have noticed it's male pattern baldness. I'm thinking about trying Minoxidil topical solution, but I'm unsure if it's safe, especially since there are mixed opinions about using Minoxidil before marriage because it might affect fertility. Plus, I've heard about potential side effects like chest pain and dry skin, which is a bit worrying. How should I approach this? I'm sure others have the same questions, so any advice would really help.
