I'm a mom to a 10-month-old baby boy, and I've noticed his skin is quite dark. I'm really hoping to enhance his skin tone. Could you share some safe skin whitening tips for babies? I'm worried about any potential side effects these might have, and I'm curious if the changes would be permanent. Just want to make sure it's safe for my little one.

I've noticed that a lot of my hair is falling out, especially in the middle of my head where there's now a round patch with only a few hairs left. I'm 42 and really worried about losing more hair and going completely bald. Could you suggest any treatments to help save what's left? I'm based in Mumbai.

That's male pattern baldness,due to androgen effect, consume balanced diet and maintain healthy lifestyle and visit Dermatologist for appropriate management

I've got these rashes around my private area that were starting to feel better when I was using candid B powder, but now there's this painful lump that's just popped up recently. I'm worried and trying to figure out what might be causing this and what kind of treatment would help. Any ideas?

The lump around your private area could be a result of a skin infection, possibly an abscess or swollen lymph node. I recommend seeing a doctor for an examination, as they might prescribe antibiotics or drain the lump if necessary. In the meantime, avoid tight clothing and keep the area clean.
