I'm a bit worried about my hair situation, specifically on the top and crown area. I've attached a picture for reference. Will using Minoxidil 5% help with this, and also, can it bring back my receding hairline? I'm really looking for some advice here.

An increase in resting heart rate from 60 BPM to 88 BPM without any significant changes in medication, exercise, or diet may indicate an underlying issue. It is recommended to monitor your heart rate regularly and consult with your healthcare provider for further evaluation. In some cases, medications such as beta-blockers like Metoprolol may be prescribed to help lower the heart rate. The usual dosage for Metoprolol for heart rate control is 25-100 mg once or twice daily, as prescribed by your doctor.

I'm dealing with a cut mark on my left hand that happened back in January 2016. I didn't get any treatment for it at that time. Now, the wound mark has become thick, and I'm experiencing pain and itching there. Even a light touch is painful. Could you advise me on what to do?

Soframycin cream for local application is advised for 2 weeks twice daily.

I'm currently undergoing treatment for acanthosis nigricans, and my doctor recommended using a radiofrequency technique to get rid of some small black spots under my arm. I recently moved to a new city, and I'm wondering if I can continue this treatment here. Is this something I should be concerned about when changing locations, or can I just find a local specialist to continue with the radiofrequency treatment?

I've recently gotten over jaundice, but now I'm dealing with some pretty bad hair loss, especially around the front. Is it normal to lose hair like this after having jaundice, and is there a chance my hair might grow back? What steps can I take to prevent or manage this hair fall?

To help with hair regrowth and prevent further hair fall, you can consider taking biotin supplements to support hair growth. Additionally, using minoxidil solution on the affected areas can also help promote hair regrowth. It is important to maintain a balanced diet rich in vitamins and minerals, and to avoid excessive heat styling or chemical treatments on your hair. You may also consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and treatment options.
