I'm dealing with alopecia barbae and it's really stressing me out. I'm desperate to find out what the best treatment options are to help manage or hopefully overcome this. Also, how much time does it typically take to see any improvements?

Alopecia barbae, which is a type of hair loss that affects the beard area, can be treated with minoxidil solution. You can apply minoxidil 5% solution twice daily on the affected area. It may take several months to see significant improvement, and treatment may need to be continued long-term to maintain results.

I have a pyogenic granuloma on my scalp and I'm a bit worried. Is it harmful if I just leave it alone? Could this be some kind of cancer? Also, are there any treatments I can try at home without needing surgery?
A pyogenic granuloma on your scalp is a benign, non-cancerous growth of blood vessels. While it's not harmful on its own, it's advisable to consult a doctor for diagnosis and treatment, especially if it's bleeding or causing cosmetic concerns. Home treatments are generally not recommended, but there are some medical options
