I'm a bit confused about the prescription my doctor gave me. They've suggested using Proanagen solution on my scalp at bedtime, mentioning something about '4 in night'. Does this mean I should apply it every night, and do I need to wash my hair in the morning? Any advice would be really helpful!

I'm really stressed out because my skin's gotten darker from using pads. I've tried different home remedies and creams, but it's only made things worse, and now I've lost my original skin tone. I can't stand the way my skin looks right now and it's affecting my confidence. Can anyone guide me on how to fix this and get my normal skin back?

it seems like you may be experiencing a condition called post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. To help lighten the darkened areas and restore your skin tone, you can try using a topical cream containing hydroquinone, kojic acid, and glycolic acid. One example of a suitable cream is Melalite Forte cream, to be applied once daily at night on the affected areas. Additionally, using a sunscreen with high SPF daily is crucial to prevent further darkening of the skin. Make sure to apply the sunscreen generously and reapply every few hours if you are outdoors. It is also important to avoid direct sun exposure as much as possible. Remember to be patient as it may take several weeks to see noticeable improvement in your skin tone.

Is there a safe and affordable way to remove a mole on my nose without expensive surgery? I'm worried about the cost but also want to make sure it's done properly. What options do I have?

Removing your mole at home can be incredibly dangerous and may cause severe scarring. Mole removal creams sound in pharmacies and online stores aren't proven to work and can leave scarring. If you remove your mole, you cannot get it checked for skin cancer and reduce your chance of a life-threatening melanoma.
