I'm experiencing a really bad burning sensation on my hands after cutting ginger and chillis, and it's been going on for about three hours now. I've tried some home remedies like using milk, but nothing seems to work. I even tried ValerateN cream and took a pain killer, but the pain is still unbearable. Do you have any suggestions on what I could do to relieve this?

I've been losing a lot of hair lately and it's really worrying me. I switched to herbal shampoo and oil but it hasn't made any difference. My hair keeps falling out every day and I'm not sure what to do. I don't want surgery can medications alone help with this?

Minoxidil and oral meds may help with hair fall‚Äîdermatologist evaluation is key before considering surgery.
