I'm losing my hair a lot and it's really freaking me out. Plus, I've got this constant itching on my scalp and I have no clue what's causing it. Can you help me figure out what's going on and suggest something for the itching and hair loss? I'm really worried.

Hair loss and itching on the scalp can be due to various reasons such as fungal infections, dandruff, or even stress. To address the itching on your head, you can use a medicated shampoo containing ketoconazole or selenium sulfide. One popular brand is Nizoral shampoo, which you can use twice a week. For hair fall, you can try using minoxidil solution such as Rogaine. Apply 1 ml of Rogaine solution twice daily on the scalp where hair loss is occurring. Additionally, make sure to eat a balanced diet rich in vitamins and minerals to support hair growth

View allHey, I've got this wound on my face and it's starting to heal, but now the skin's turned pink. Should I be doing something specific to treat it, or will it just heal on its own naturally? I'm kind of curious and a bit worried about it.
The pink color skin around the healed wound is a normal part of the healing process; with time, it should fade naturally, but to promote faster skin tone evenness, consider using topical treatments like silicone gel or sheeting, vitamin E oil, or aloe vera gel, and protect the area from sun exposure using a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30+ to prevent hyperpigmentation.

I've noticed this lump on my right hip and initially thought it might turn into a boil, but it hasn't. Instead, it's become hard and painful. Any idea who I should see about this?
