I'm curious about using Capixyl hair serum and I have a few questions. Is it actually beneficial for hair, and are there any side effects I should be aware of? Also, is it going to leave my hair feeling sticky, and does it really help with hair growth?

View allI'm a 27-year-old guy and my doctor suggested I take Keraglo Men tablets for my hair. I'm wondering, if I take these tablets every day, will I see any improvement in hair growth? They also mentioned some serum and oil for me to use. Is there a good chance that these will actually help my hair grow back? I'm just trying to figure out if it's worth sticking to this routine.
Keraglo Men's tablets, containing Biotin, Vitamin D, and Saw Palmetto, can promote hair growth when taken daily as prescribed; combining them with the recommended serum and oil may enhance effectiveness, potentially leading to noticeable hair growth and strengthening within 3-6 months, but individual results may vary.

I've been dealing with hair fall and my doctor mentioned Follihair. I'm curious if there's a more budget-friendly option like Supradyne or Zincovit that might work just as well. Also, can I opt for any brand of Minoxidil 5? I'm a 23-year-old guy and would really appreciate your advice!

I've been worried about a leech bite I got on a trek back in late September. It was just a small bite on my left leg, but instead of drying up like the ones on my right foot, it seems to be getting bigger and a bit darker. It's been over two months, and I'm not sure if it's turning into an infection because I feel a slight pain when I press on it. I've been using turmeric and coconut oil, but it doesn't seem to help much. Should I be concerned? Is there something else I should do to treat it?
The leech bite on your left leg that has not completely dried out even after two months and is slowly getting bigger and blacker may indeed be infected. The slight pain when you press on it also suggests inflammation. I recommend cleaning the area with antiseptic solution and applying an antibiotic ointment like Neosporin twice a day. Additionally, you can take an oral antibiotic like Amoxicillin 500mg three times a day for 7-10 days to help clear up the infection. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry, and avoid scratching or picking at the bite. If the infection does not improve or if you develop fever or worsening symptoms, please seek medical attention promptly.
