Question

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've noticed something strange with my beard recently. Some of the hairs are turning brown and a few even light brown, which is odd because all my other body hair is still black. I first thought it was maybe because of the gel I was using, but I haven't used any for the last six months, and there's been no change. Now I'm just using oil. Any idea why this is happening and how I might be able to get my beard back to its original black color?

Question

I'm curious about the CUTIMIN tablets that my doctor prescribed for my hair fall. Can you tell me about any side effects associated with them? Also, do they contain any iron?

Question

I'm dealing with chicken pox and feeling pretty uncomfortable and in pain. I'm wondering if smoking weed could help me feel better. Is it safe to do that while dealing with this illness?
