I'm curious if onion juice can actually help with a scalp fungal infection and get rid of those pesky white flakes on my scalp. I know it has sulfur in it, so does it make a difference in this case? Would love some guidance on this!

View allI'm really concerned because I got diagnosed with typhoid back in January and thankfully I recovered in about 10 days. But ever since, I've been experiencing this really intense hair fall. It's starting to worry me a lot. Can you recommend any medication or treatments that could help reduce the hair fall and maybe also improve my overall hair health?

I'm really confused about whether I have milia or molluscum. Some doctors tell me it's molluscum, but others say it's milia, and I can't really tell what it is. Could you help explain the difference and maybe give me some tips on identifying which one I might have?
Milia and molluscum are two distinct skin conditions that can be confusing to diagnose. Milia Milia, also known as milk spots or keratin cysts, are small, white or yellowish bumps on the skin. They occur when keratin, a protein, becomes trapped beneath the skin's surface. Characteristics of milia: - Small, usually 1-2 mm in diameter - White or yellowish in color - Firm to the touch - Typically found on the face, especially around the eyes, nose, and mouth - Can also occur on the arms, legs, and torso Molluscum Contagiosum Molluscum contagiosum is a viral skin infection caused by the molluscum contagiosum virus (MCV). It leads to the formation of small, flesh-colored or pink bumps on the skin. Characteristics of molluscum contagiosum: - Small, usually 2-5 mm in diameter - Flesh-colored or pink in color - Soft to the touch - Typically found on the face, neck, arms, and legs - Can be contagious through skin-to-skin contact or sharing personal items
