I'm dealing with pimples, and my family doctor previously suggested I use E45 cream and take ERYTHROCIN 250MG tablets. However, he's currently unavailable, and I'm unsure about the exact dosage I should be on. Can you offer any guidance or advice on this?

I'm really concerned about my skin ever since I found out I have Schamberg's disease. These scars or reddish-brown patches that it leaves behind are really troubling me. Is there any effective treatment out there that can actually get rid of them for good? I'd love to know more about what options might be available that can help with these unwanted marks.

I'm really concerned about my hair loss and I've been thinking about trying the hairbless tablets. If I stop taking them, will my hair fall out again? Also, is it safe to start with these tablets and how long should I take them for?

Hairbless tablets typically contain natural ingredients like saw palmetto, biotin, and keratin that help promote hair growth and reduce hair fall. _Stopping Hairbless Tablets_ 1. _Hair fall may resume_: Stopping Hairbless tablets can lead to a return of hair fall, as the underlying causes are not addressed. 2. _Not a permanent solution_: Hairbless tablets are meant to be used as a supplement to support hair growth, not as a permanent solution. _Safety and Duration_ 1. _Generally safe_: Hairbless tablets are considered safe for most people, but it's essential to follow the recommended dosage and consult a doctor before starting. 2. _Duration_: The recommended duration for taking Hairbless tablets varies from person to person. Typically, it's advised to take the tablets for at least 3-6 months to see noticeable results.

I've got a boil on my arm and I'm worried it's MRSA because I've dealt with that in the past. I visited the doctor, and they prescribed mupirocin ointment for me, but they said to put it in my nose. I'm a bit confused because the instructions say it's not meant for intranasal use. Do you think I should follow the doctor's advice even though the ointment is labeled for external use?

Mupirocin ointment is indeed meant for external use only and should not be used intranasally, as mentioned in the instructions. If you have concerns about using it in your nose, it would be best to clarify with your doctor or seek a second opinion. For the boil on your arm, your doctor may prescribe oral antibiotics such as Bactrim or Clindamycin to treat MRSA infections.
