I'm dealing with molluscum contagiosum and tried using Retino A ointment, but it doesn't seem to be working. I'm really not keen on having surgery to remove them. Is there any other treatment option that could help get rid of molluscum?

View allI'm dealing with really thin and scanty hair, so I went to see a trichologist. They prescribed me Mintop Eva 5 lotion and told me to apply 1ml daily. I'm curious, after putting on the Mintop, is it okay if I put oil on my hair after, say, 3 hours?
Yes you can apply no problem
