I'm dealing with some pretty significant hair fall and I'm really hoping to put a stop to it and get my hair to be thick and dense again. I've heard about treatments like Minoxidil and Mesotherapy and I'm curious about the average cost for these. Also, once I start treatment, how long can I expect the effects to last?

Minoxidil is more affordable, with costs around 300 to 700 per month, but results only last as long as you continue using it. Mesotherapy is more expensive, typically costing 2,000 to 5,000 per session, and often requires multiple sessions to achieve noticeable results, but it can provide more long-term improvements with maintenance.

I've been dealing with tinea cruris and my doctor prescribed me to take gris ODT for a couple of weeks and to use XYZal 10 mg as needed, along with Onabet cream without steroids. I followed this for two weeks and the infection seems almost gone, but the doctor advised me to continue the gris ODT for another week and the cream for two more weeks. Occasionally, I still get a light itching sensation around my area. Should I keep taking gris ODT for even longer? If so, how many more weeks should I continue? Also, can you suggest a good soap to use for the genital area?

You can use a gentle and mild soap for the genital area, such as Dove Sensitive Skin Beauty Bar or Cetaphil Gentle Cleansing Bar. Make sure to avoid harsh soaps or those with strong fragrances to prevent irritation. Yes, you should continue taking Gris ODT as advised by your doctor. I recommend continuing Gris ODT for another week to ensure the infection is completely gone

I'm wondering if I should keep taking the POPSON INTAS tablets that my doctor recommended. I'm supposed to have one in the morning and one at night, but when I took it just once at night, I ended up with body pain, especially in my hands, legs, and joints, and I felt really dizzy. I stopped taking it for now because I wasn't feeling well. Should I continue with this medication despite these side effects?

Kindly stop taking the medication, you can start taking tab Aceclofenac 100 mg ,orally once daily for 7 days is advised to the patient.
