Question

I'm dealing with really bad dandruff and I've heard that lemon juice might help. Can I just apply lemon juice directly onto my scalp for this? Also, I'm worried if using lemon juice might cause my hair to turn white. What should I do?

Question

I'm currently seeing a dermatologist for some acne scarring and I've been taking sotret 20mg for the past four months and it's really helped with the scars and my face isn't as oily. But I've started noticing that my hair is thinning, my eyes burn a lot, I get nosebleeds, stomach upsets, hair fall, and even back pain sometimes. Are these the side effects of sotret? And if they are, will they go away once I stop the medication? Will my hair eventually get back to its original thickness, and how long might that take? I mentioned all these symptoms to my dermatologist, but she doesn't really think they're caused by the medication. Any thoughts on what I should do?

Question

I'm wondering if using Mintop Forte is causing some kind of reaction on my scalp. I've been applying it for the past two to three days, and now Im noticing pimple-like bumps popping up. I've attached a photo to show what I mean. Could these be related to the product, and should I be worried or do something about it?

Question

I'm wondering if applying Glocin during the day is safe. Will it cause any pigmentation if I'm exposed to sunlight or even just the light from a normal tubelight? Really need some guidance here.
