I'm really concerned because I had an electrical solenoid explode in my hand last October and got 2nd degree burns. The GP checked it over, and while it's healed now and not red or hot, I'm starting to feel pain around where the wound was. Theres some scarring, but its barely visible. Im afraid there might be some internal damage I can't see. What should I do about this pain? Could it be something serious?

Burns can sometimes damage nerves, especially if they affect deeper layers of the skin. Even after the visible injury heals, the nerves can take time to fully recover, which may cause persistent pain, tingling, or sensitivity in the affected area.If the pain is sharp, burning, or tingling, it could be related to nerve regeneration or nerve damage. This type of pain is sometimes referred to as neuropathic pain.Seeing a dermatologist or burn specialist: They can assess the healing process and check for any underlying issues with the skin or deeper tissues.

View allIs minoxidil something that's a permanent fix for hair loss, or does it only work while you're using it? I'm a bit concerned about having to apply it indefinitely. Plus, I've been wondering if yoga might help with male pattern baldness. If it does, how long should I stick with it to see any results? By the way, I've noticed Dr. M.K Aggarwal tends to give the same advice for hair loss issues, so I'm hoping for a fresh perspective.
Minoxidil is not a permanent cure for male pattern baldness. It is effective in promoting hair growth as long as it is being applied regularly. One popular brand of minoxidil is Rogaine. Yoga alone is not a proven cure for male pattern baldness. While stress reduction techniques like yoga may help improve overall health and potentially reduce hair loss caused by stress, it is not a guaranteed cure for male pattern baldness. It is recommended to continue practicing yoga as part of a healthy lifestyle. For male pattern baldness treatment, you can consider using minoxidil as mentioned earlier.

My husband is 35 and he's developed ringworm near his pubic area. We're really looking for some advice on how to deal with the itching and burning. Is there a specific cream or treatment you'd recommend that could help him? We're quite concerned and could use some guidance.
I recommend using an antifungal cream such as Clotrimazole 1% cream. Apply a thin layer of the cream to the affected area twice a day for 2-4 weeks. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry before applying the cream. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

I've been dealing with a lot of acne lately, and my skin's gotten really oily. I've been using Clincitop cream, along with a Lotus tea tree face wash and Oriflame tea tree moisturizer. I'm really hoping to clear up these pimples and the marks they leave behind, plus I'd love to get rid of this oily skin. Could you please guide me on what to do?
