I'm dealing with a lot of hair fall and also have an anal fistula. My hair keeps falling no matter what I try, and the doctor said I need surgery for the fistula soon. What should I do about both issues?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
To address both hair fall and an anal fistula, it's important to focus on reducing stress, managing the fistula with medical intervention, and addressing potential underlying causes of hair loss. For the fistula, the doctor's recommendation for surgery should be followed. For hair fall, explore potential causes like stress, fungal infections, or nutritional deficiencies, and consider seeking professional advice for appropriate treatment.

I've been dealing with genital warts for about a year now and have tried various treatments including seeing a doctor and using home remedies like garlic and ginger. I keep removing them, but they come back after a few weeks or months. Is this something Ill have to deal with permanently? Could the warts spread to other parts of my body?
Genital warts are caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV) and can be persistent. While there is no permanent cure for HPV, there are treatments available to manage the symptoms. One effective medication for genital warts is "Aldara cream," which contains imiquimod. You can apply a thin layer of Aldara cream on the warts before bedtime, three times a week for up to 16 weeks. This can help reduce the size and spread of the warts. It is important to note that genital warts can spread to other parts of the body through skin-to-skin contact, so it is essential to take precautions to prevent transmission. Additionally, practicing safe sex and maintaining good hygiene can help reduce the risk of spreading the virus. If you have concerns about the spread of warts on your body, it is advisable to consult with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I had a bandaid on my finger for a couple of days because of a cut, which seemed to have healed. When I took the bandaid off today though, my finger looked kinda weird. What could be going on? Should I be worried or do something about it?
it's likely that the skin under the band-aid has experienced skin irritation or contact dermatitis, possibly due to adhesive or friction; apply a topical antibiotic ointment and cover with a breathable dressing to promote healing, and consider switching to hypoallergenic band-aids or alternative wound dressings in the future.
