I'm really struggling with excessive dandruff that's been troubling me for the past 10 years. I recently visited a doctor in Bangalore and was told I have seborrheic dermatitis, but they mentioned it's incurable. I've tried using noskurf lotion and a shampoo from Cipla that was recommended, but unfortunately, I'm not seeing any improvement. I'm just wondering if you could suggest a good doctor in Bangalore or share some tips that might help with this issue?

In addition to using the Noskurf lotion and Cipla shampoo as prescribed by your doctor, you can also try the following tips to help control your condition: Use a medicated shampoo containing ketoconazole (such as Nizoral shampoo) at least twice a week. Wash your hair regularly to prevent oil buildup on your scalp. Avoid using hair products that can irritate the scalp, such as gels and mousses. Manage stress levels, as stress can exacerbate seborrheic dermatitis. - Eat a healthy diet rich in vitamins and minerals to support overall skin health.

I've had this lump filled with pus on one of my butt cheeks for about a month now, and it was really painful. I pressed on it to get the pus out, and while it's not inflamed or painful anymore, the skin's still hard. Do you know how I can get rid of the scar and get my skin back to normal? Also, I'm wondering why this happened in the first place and how I can prevent it from happening again.

Give time it will heal on its own,no need to worry,that could be due folliculitis or any other regular abscess,if there is recurrence,visit Surgeon for appropriate management

I'm really worried about my friend who keeps getting ringworm over and over. She gets better after treatment, but then a few months later, it pops up again. Is this something serious, or does it mean something else might be going on? The doctor mentioned coming back if it happens again, do you think she should make another appointment? What steps should she take to finally get rid of it for good?
