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.

View allI've used Dettol on my skin, and now the area around it has darkened. Is this something that will go away on its own? It's also causing some irritation. What should I do about it?
It sounds like you may be experiencing a skin reaction to the Dettol. To help with the irritation and darkening of the skin, you can try using a mild steroid cream like Hydrocortisone 1% cream. Apply a thin layer on the affected area twice a day for up to 7 days. Additionally, you can use a soothing moisturizer like Cetaphil to help hydrate the skin. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please consult a doctor for further evaluation and management.

I've noticed my forehead is swollen just above my right eye. It's not itchy or painful and measures about 1 inch wide by 1.5 inches in height. A couple of nights ago, my head was really itchy, and I had big, itchy bumps all over my shoulders. I'm not sure if that's connected, but what might be causing the swelling on my forehead?
he sudden onset of a painless, non-itchy swelling on your forehead, coinciding with a previous episode of itchy bumps on your shoulders, could be related to an allergic reaction, insect bites, or angioedema, but other possibilities include a forehead cyst, eyelid stye, or a side effect of a medication; to determine the cause and appropriate treatment, it's recommended to consult a dermatologist or primary care physician for a thorough evaluation.

I've got some Biotique Ayurvedic products like hair masks, face packs, and skin polishers that have been unopened for about 4 years. They were manufactured from October 2015 to September 2016, and they say they expire 3 years from the manufacturing date. Is it okay to use them now? I've heard that Ayurvedic products don't really expire. What do you think?
