I'm dealing with a hair fall issue, and my doctor suggested using Diprovate Plus. The problem is, I've forgotten exactly how I'm supposed to use it. Should I be applying it directly to the scalp? I'm really unsure and a bit concerned about using it wrong. Could you guide me on this?

I'm using melamet cream and my skin has become fairer and whiter, which is great. But now I'm thinking about stopping the cream. Can you suggest another cream that can help me maintain this skin tone without causing any side effects?

You can consider using a cream containing Kojic acid, Vitamin C, and Arbutin for maintaining skin tone without side effects. One such cream is "Kozilite-H Cream." Apply a thin layer of this cream on the affected areas. Don't forget to use sunscreen.

I've noticed these small circular indentations on both sides of the center of my chest, and the skin around them is kind of reddish. It feels a little weird when I breathe, but otherwise, it's not bothering me much. The itching only gets worse when I'm out in the sun. Is this something I should be worried about? What's causing it? Could it have anything to do with a condition known as "having a of 16084"?

history is incomplete! but acc to external changes it maybe Marian's syndrome
