I'm really stressed about my hair falling out for the past 34 months. I went to a doctor last month and got prescribed sebowash shampoo and tressglow tablets to use for a month, but my hair's still falling. I've checked and I don't have thyroid issues. I'm starting to worry if I need to take steroidsare they safe? Can anyone help me with some advice?

I've been struggling with these rashes that keep coming back even though I'm following my dermatologist's treatment. The meds worked at first but now I'm still getting rashes during the course and once it's done, it's back again. I've taken so many medicines over the last few months, and I'm worried if I'm missing something. How can I clear these allergies completely from my body?

I've been dealing with genital warts for about a year now and have tried various treatments including seeing a doctor and using home remedies like garlic and ginger. I keep removing them, but they come back after a few weeks or months. Is this something Ill have to deal with permanently? Could the warts spread to other parts of my body?

Genital warts are caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV) and can be persistent. While there is no permanent cure for HPV, there are treatments available to manage the symptoms. One effective medication for genital warts is "Aldara cream," which contains imiquimod. You can apply a thin layer of Aldara cream on the warts before bedtime, three times a week for up to 16 weeks. This can help reduce the size and spread of the warts. It is important to note that genital warts can spread to other parts of the body through skin-to-skin contact, so it is essential to take precautions to prevent transmission. Additionally, practicing safe sex and maintaining good hygiene can help reduce the risk of spreading the virus. If you have concerns about the spread of warts on your body, it is advisable to consult with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I recently got my hands waxed, and ever since, I've developed some major skin issues. My hands are now covered with pimples and rashes, and the beautician mentioned it could be a bacterial allergy. It's super itchy and painful with these red bumps ranging from tiny to quite big all over my hands. I'm really worried about it. What could be causing this, and what should I do to make it better?

It sounds like you may be experiencing an allergic reaction or contact dermatitis from the waxing procedure. To help with the itching, pain, and inflammation, you can try using an over-the-counter hydrocortisone cream to reduce the inflammation and itching. Additionally, you can take an oral antihistamine such as cetirizine to help with the itching. To prevent any bacterial infection, you can apply an over-the-counter antibiotic ointment like Neosporin on the affected area. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry to prevent further irritation. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it is important to consult with a dermatologist for further evaluation and management.
