I've been dealing with skin itching for about 15 days now and have been taking Avil tablets daily, but they don't seem to be helping. Could you suggest anything else I could try? I'm really concerned about this.

So, I was told by a doctor to try using the Biluma cream on my dark lips every night, but honestly, I haven't noticed any changes. I'm a bit concerned about what else I can do now to help with this issue. Any suggestions or different treatments you think could work better?

In this case, you can try using a different cream called Melalite XL cream. Apply a thin layer on your lips every night before bedtime. Additionally, make sure to use a lip balm with SPF during the day to protect your lips from further darkening.

Can I use Anaboom shampoo to help with my dandruff? I'm really frustrated with my hair fall. Every time I wash my hair, it seems like I've got even more hair falling out. Is there anything I can do to control both the dandruff and hair fall?

I recommend using Nizoral shampoo for dandruff control. It contains ketoconazole which is effective against dandruff. Use it twice a week for 8 weeks. Additionally, you can use Minoxidil solution 5% for hair fall. Apply 1ml twice daily on the scalp.
