I'm currently breastfeeding and I've been dealing with some nasty urticaria. I heard Allegra 180 might help with the rashes and swelling, but is it actually safe for me to take? I'm really worried about any potential effects on my baby. What should I do?

My 15-day-old baby has developed a rash on her face, and I'm concerned about whether it's safe to use the Dermadew lotion there. We had a similar rash on her neck before, and our doctor recommended Dermadew, which seemed to help clear it up. Is it okay to use it on her face too? Also, I'm curious about what might be causing these rashes on her skin. Any idea what could be going on?

Yes, you can use dermadew lotion on your baby's face for the rash. The rash on your baby's skin could be due to various reasons such as irritation from clothing, heat, drooling, or a reaction to skincare products. Dermadew lotion contains ingredients like Aloe Vera, Olive Oil, and Almond Oil which help in soothing and moisturizing the skin. You can apply a thin layer of dermadew lotion on the affected areas of your baby's face after gently cleansing the skin. If the rash persists or worsens, it is advisable to consult with your pediatrician for further evaluation and management.

I'm really worried because I'm experiencing significant hair fall and dandruff, and I'm not sure what to do about it. I've also noticed that some strands have turned white. I've heard about Livon hair tonic being helpful, but I'm not entirely sure if it's the right choice. Could you please guide me on how to stop the hair fall and possibly regrow my hair?

My husband keeps getting boils pretty often, like at least once a month, and it's really worrying us. Even though he maintains good hygiene, they just keep coming back. He also has issues with his skin, like acne and pimples, and occasionally he deals with allergies too. Is there something we might be missing or should be doing differently? What do you suggest?
