I'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?

I've been dealing with this rash near my belly button for the past two months. I saw a dermatologist and got an ointment that helped for a bit, but as soon as it runs out, the rash comes back. What could be causing this? Should I be worried about it, and is there a long-term solution? I'm concerned about why it just won't go away.

It sounds like you may be dealing with a recurring rash near your belly button. Since the ointment prescribed by your dermatologist provided temporary relief but the rash keeps coming back, I recommend trying an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole (Canesten) twice a day for 2-4 weeks. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry, and avoid tight clothing that may irritate the rash further. If the rash persists, follow up with your dermatologist for further evaluation.

I've been noticing rashes on my private area, and they tend to get worse whenever there's any interaction down there. If I give it a rest for a few days, the rash fades away, but the skin stays white. It's been bothering me, and I'm wondering what could be causing this? Is it something I should be worried about?

I'm dealing with some serious hair fall and hair loss, and I'm currently on isotretinoin for my acne. I'm worried because the hair fall is getting really bad, and I'm afraid I might go bald soon. I can't stop the acne treatment because it's severe, but is there anything I can do about the hair loss? Can isotretinoin be causing this? Any advice would be appreciated.

there is no such relation between isotretinoin and hairfall infact it indirectly helps in nourishing your hair,there are many causes for hairfall, visit your dermatologist for evaluation and appropriate tretament, consume balanced diet with extra protien for healthy hair and skin.
