Question 1

I'm having issues with my tongue  the skin is peeling, it's really painful, and I can't eat anything. Could you recommend any medicine for this? Do you think those Vitamin C chewable tablets would be helpful?

Accepted Answer

Could be due to a condition called oral mucositis. Vitamin C chewable tablets may not directly help with this issue. I recommend using a topical oral gel containing a local anesthetic like lidocaine to help with the pain and a mouthwash containing a mild antiseptic like chlorhexidine gluconate to prevent infection. Additionally, you can take over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen for pain relief. If the symptoms persist, please consult a doctor for further evaluation and management.

Question 2

I'm really worried about something and I'm hoping you can help. I've been using No Scars cream for a while now, and I've heard rumors that using it continuously might cause cancer. Is there any truth to that? If it is possible, when would it become a risk and what causes this to happen?

Accepted Answer

Advised in the morning after breakfast.

Question 3

I'm noticing a thin black line on the nail of my right thumb, and it seems to be permanent. It's been there for a while, grows with the nail, and isn't just a stain or mark that can be washed off. I recently came across some information online suggesting it might be a sign of melanoma, which is a bit worrying. I'm aware that online info can sometimes be exaggerated, but I want to be sure there's nothing serious going on. Could this be a cause for concern?

Accepted Answer

Probable diagnosis is psoriasis,eczema,hypothyroidism,injury,rheumatoid arhritis, melanonychia,Hiv,cancer and anemia etc. vit b12 deficiency .Most causes of black lines do not require treatment..Melanoma is a exception.Treatment of the underlying cause .

I'm noticing some baldness on the top back of my head and I just stumbled upon this FollicleRx product. I'm curious whether it's actually safe to use. Do I need a prescription to buy it, or can I just get it over the counter? Any advice would be really helpful.

A dermat opinion is advised before taking medication.
