I'm dealing with a skin infection, and my doctor prescribed me Cutisoft and Peroclin. I'm a bit confused because he didn't specify if I should be using Peroclin 2.5 or Peroclin 5. How can I find out which one to use?

To clarify the prescription, I recommend calling your doctor's office or sending a message to confirm whether the prescribed Peroclin is 2.5% or 5%; alternatively, you can also check the prescription label or packaging, if available, or schedule a follow-up appointment to ensure you're using the correct medication and dosage.

I've got this boil or phoda at the start of my hip line that just won't heal. Every day, pus and a little bit of blood come out of it. I've tried using different antiseptic creams and even took amoxicillin tablets, but nothing seems to be working. I also have diabetes, but it's under control. What could be causing this issue, and how can I get it to heal?

I've been using Keraglo Eva tablets for about three months now because I'm dealing with hair fall. I'm wondering how much longer I can keep taking them safely. Is it okay to use them regularly as a normal part of my hair care routine?
