I'm getting worried because I've been using Cutisoft for almost a week now to treat these shining rashes, but there doesn't seem to be any improvement. Is there anything else I should be doing, or could there be a reason it's not working?

View allCan I use coconut oil after putting on Tugain foam? My hair gets really dry from it, so I'm wondering if it's okay to apply some coconut oil to help with that.
Yes, you can use coconut oil after applying Tugain foam. It can help moisturize your hair and scalp. You can apply a small amount of coconut oil to your hair, massage it gently, and leave it on for a few hours before washing it off.

I'm experiencing hair fall after recovering from typhoid fever. What steps can I take to minimize this shedding? Any advice would be really appreciated.
Typhoid fever can cause hair loss due to the physical stress it puts on the body. To reduce hair fall after typhoid fever: *Nutrition and Supplements* 1. *Protein-rich diet*: Include protein-rich foods like fish, eggs, beans, and nuts to help rebuild hair follicles. 2. *Iron supplements*: Iron deficiency is common after typhoid fever. Consult your doctor about taking iron supplements. 3. *Vitamin B complex*: Vitamin B complex, especially B12, plays a crucial role in hair growth. Consider taking supplements or eating foods rich in vitamin B. 4. *Omega-3 fatty acids*: Omega-3 fatty acids, found in fish oil supplements, promote hair growth and reduce inflammation. *Hair Care* 1. *Gentle shampooing*: Use a gentle, sulfate-free shampoo to minimize hair breakage. 2. *Reduce heat styling*: Avoid heat styling tools like flat irons, curling irons, and blow dryers, as they can damage hair and lead to breakage. 3. *Use a wide-tooth comb*: A wide-tooth comb is gentler on hair than regular combs or brushes, which can cause breakage. 4. *Avoid harsh chemical treatments*: Postpone chemical treatments like hair dyeing, perming, or straightening until your hair has fully recovered. *Additional Tips* 1. *Stay hydrated*: Drink plenty of water to help your body recover from typhoid fever and promote hair growth. 2. *Reduce stress*: High stress levels can contribute to hair loss. Engage in stress-reducing activities like meditation, yoga, or deep breathing exercises. 3. *Get enough sleep*: Adequate sleep is essential for hair growth and overall health. Aim for 7-8 hours of sleep per night. Consult your doctor or a dermatologist for personalized advice on reducing hair fall after typhoid fever.
