I'm curious about using onion juice for hair regrowth, especially for male pattern baldness and some genetic issues. Could it cause any side effects?

Onion juice may help promote hair regrowth, but its effectiveness for male pattern baldness, especially with genetic factors, is limited, and potential side effects include skin irritation, allergic reactions, and eye irritation.

I've had this splinter stuck in my finger for around 5 months now, and no matter how hard I try, I can't find it or get it out. Now there's this hard bump that's super sensitive and sometimes painful when I press on it. There's this one spot that's particularly tender, right where the splinter originally was. I've cut away dead skin and tried to find it so many times, but this bump just keeps coming back after about a week. What should I do about this?

I'm worried about using Melaglow cream every day. Can it damage my skin if used regularly? If its not safe, would switching to Fairlite be a better option?

Using Melaglow cream regularly is generally safe for most individuals. It is commonly used to treat hyperpigmentation and dark spots on the skin. However, it is important to follow the recommended dosage and application instructions provided by your healthcare provider or mentioned on the packaging. If you experience any irritation, redness, or other adverse effects while using Melaglow cream, you should discontinue use and consult with a healthcare professional. Fairlite cream can be used as an alternative to Melaglow if you experience any negative reactions to Melaglow. Fairlite also helps in treating hyperpigmentation and dark spots. The recommended dosage and application instructions for Fairlite may vary, so it is advisable to consult with a healthcare provider or pharmacist before using it.
