I'm on itraconazole 200mg daily for about a month now, and I've started losing more hair than usual. Could this be a side effect of the medication? I'm a bit worried and would appreciate any insights.

I've been dealing with whiteheads on my nose, and I've made a habit of picking at them. Recently, though, the skin on my nose started peeling, and now it's looking darker compared to the surrounding areas, plus there's this horizontal dark line running across it. I'm worried and wondering: will my skin eventually recover from this on its own? Should I be doing something different to help it heal?

I've got this wart near my left eye, and I was told that it might be wise to consider having it surgically removed with local anesthesia. It's preventative, in case it turns malignant in the future, but right now, it's not causing any trouble. Do you think it's a good idea to go ahead with the surgery? Since it's so close to my eye, is there any risk of nerve damage, or any other complications I should be aware of? Could it come back?

Yes its always better to get it removed,follow your doctors advice
