I'm an MBBS doctor dealing with acne vulgaris grade 2, and after trying minoz 40mg for 10 days with topical adaplene gel, I still haven't seen any improvement. I'm wondering what I should try next. Do you think Tretinoin would be necessary, and what would the dose be? I've noticed it gets worse pre-menstrually. Any advice?

View allI've been having terrible hair fall ever since I had dengue fever. It's really worrying me, and I don't know what to do to make it stop quickly. Could you please guide me on how to deal with this?
To help stop hair fall, you can try using Minoxidil solution 5% twice daily on the affected areas of the scalp. Additionally, taking Biotin tablets 10mg once daily can also help in promoting hair growth. Make sure to maintain a healthy diet rich in vitamins and minerals, and avoid excessive stress.

I'm really worried about my mom. She had submucous fibrosis a few years back and got it treated, but now it seems to be happening again with her skin. Do you think homeopathy could help with this condition? How long might it take for the treatment to be effective this time? It's just so frustrating that this problem keeps coming back.
Oral submucous fibrosis is a chronic condition and usually there is no permanent cure for this condition. Treatment is aimed at improving mouth opening and identifying causes and avoiding them so that it does not worsen. She needs to be evaluated by oral surgeon for further treatment

I'm really getting worried because I have these corns on my left leg that just aren't healing, even after more than a month. Can you suggest any medicine that might help?
For corns, you can try using Salicylic Acid topical solution. Apply it directly on the corns once daily for about a week. You can also use a corn plaster containing Salicylic Acid for better results. Make sure to follow the instructions on the packaging for proper usage.
