I'm really concerned about my hair fall. It started a couple of years ago but wasn't too bad, so I ignored it. However, since I moved to a new place and started using ground water, I've noticed a lot more hair falling out than before. Are there any precautions or steps I should take to address this issue? Any advice would be appreciated.

I've got some really bad boils and I'm not sure what to do. Should I see a surgeon or maybe a dermatologist? I'm kind of worried and just want to make sure I go to the right specialist. Any advice?

You should consult with a dermatologist for the treatment of severe boils. They specialize in skin conditions and can provide you with the appropriate care. In the meantime, you can use an over-the-counter antibiotic ointment like Neosporin and apply it to the affected area twice a day to help with healing.

Can side effects from using a steroid cream on my face show up even 12 years later? I used Lobate cream a couple of times, not realizing it was a steroid, but that was about 2 years ago. Now my skin is often red and itchy. Could this be from that cream?
