I'm really concerned about a possible connection between the medication I've been taking, Saaz DS, and developing allergies. Recently, I've noticed symptoms that remind me of ringworm, and it's making me anxious. I've been on Saaz DS 1g twice daily for about a year now. Could there be a link, and should I be worried?

Saaz DS (Sulfasalazine) is not typically used to treat allergies or ringworm. It is commonly prescribed for conditions like rheumatoid arthritis and ulcerative colitis. If you are experiencing symptoms of allergies or ringworm, it is best to consult with a healthcare provider for proper evaluation and treatment.

View allI'm really struggling with hair fall, and my hair has gotten so thin because of it. Are there any shampoos or oils you could recommend that might help? I've noticed that the hair on my forehead is getting sparser on both sides. I've even tried treatments from doctors, but they only seem to work while I'm taking the tablets. For hair regrowth, they suggested Himalaya Hairzone Hairfall solution, but I haven't seen any results. What can I do to stop the hair fall and help my hair grow back thicker?

I'm really worried because within just one year, I've noticed my hair is thinning so much and I'm even starting to see bald patches. It's like my hairline is receding too, and now I'm really concerned. I used to feel more confident and even a bit prettier when I had more hair. Do you think this might be something serious? Could it be from thyroid issues or maybe it's genetics? I'm just not sure what's happening, and frankly, I'm feeling freaked out. Any advice on what's causing this and what I could possibly do to stop or slow it down?

I've been getting a lot of pimples and bumps on my cheeks and forehead lately, and it's really bothering me. I tried using Aclind BP 5 gel once a day at night and kept it on for about 3 to 4 hours before washing it off and applying moisturizer. It's been just three days, but my skin's turned red, and there's this itchiness and slight burning. I'm worried if I should stop using it? Any suggestions on how to get rid of these pimples?
