I'm dealing with some hair issues like hair fall, split ends, and slow hair growth. I'm thinking about trying biotin supplements, but I'm worried about whether they might have any side effects. Also, if it's okay to start taking them, could you suggest any specific brand that's good? I really want my hair to grow longer and healthier.

I've been dealing with this fungal infection for over a year now, and I regularly use CIPLA FOREDERM CREAM which makes it feel normal. But if I stop using the cream for just 2-3 days, the itching becomes so intense that I can't walk or wear pants comfortably. Can you advise me on how to cure this, and if there's a permanent treatment available? I'm really struggling with this and would appreciate some guidance.
That could be fungal infection which needs both oral and topical antifungal medications and personal hygiene is more important for such condition.

I've been feeling really worried lately. A while back, while I was on vacation, I noticed some swelling under my left eye one night. I used exocin, and the swelling got better, but I started losing hair, and it's not stopping even after a month. I also got the same eye infection in the same eye again. What could be causing this hair loss and recurring infection? Is there something more serious going on? I'm really scared and would appreciate any advice.
It sounds like you may be experiencing a condition called blepharitis, which is inflammation of the eyelids. The recurrence of the eye infection and ongoing hair loss may be related to this underlying issue. I recommend using a combination of antibiotic eye drops like Tobrex (tobramycin) and a mild steroid ointment like Tobradex (tobramycindexamethasone) for the eye infection. Additionally, you can try using a medicated shampoo containing ketoconazole or selenium sulfide for the hair loss. Make sure to follow the prescribed dosage and application instructions for these medications. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
