I'm currently on homeopathy treatment, but it's not working out for me. I tried allopathy treatment before too, but my pimples just won't go away. I'm feeling really scared and disappointed about this whole situation. What should I do? Can you help?

I understand your concern about your persistent pimples despite trying homeopathic and allopathic treatments. In such cases, you can consider using a topical retinoid cream such as Adapalene (e.g. Differin) at night. Additionally, you can use a benzoyl peroxide gel (e.g. Benzac AC) in the morning. Make sure to apply sunscreen during the day while using these products. If your pimples are severe, you may also benefit from oral antibiotics like Doxycycline. It's important to use these medications as directed by a healthcare professional and to be patient as it may take a few weeks to see improvement.

I've been going to the gym and sweating a lot on my scalp during workouts. After these sessions, I'm taking head baths every day. It's been two weeks, and now I'm experiencing a significant amount of hair fall. Can you help me understand what's causing this?
Excessive hair fall after starting gym routine could be due to increased sweat, friction, and tension on scalp, potentially leading to conditions like telogen effluvium, scalp irritation, or fungal infections; daily shampooing may also strip your hair of natural oils, causing dryness and breakage; consider reducing shampoo frequency, using gentle products, and incorporating scalp-friendly habits like massaging and oiling.

Could you tell me whether I should consult a dermatologist or an eye specialist for treating Xanthelasma? I'm also looking for recommendations on the best doctor in Kolkata for this condition. Any advice would be appreciated!
Xanthelasma is a skin condition that appears on the eyelids and is usually treated by a dermatologist. In some cases, an ophthalmologist may also be involved, especially if the xanthelasma is affecting the eye itself.
