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.

View allI have this 12 inch bump on my nose that just won't go away. I usually don't have acne-prone skin, but my nose pores tend to get clogged and form these flesh-tone bumps. Normally they're not a big deal, but one of them turned into this huge red bump that's really painful. It started with a lot of pain and now it's just a bump with blood and some clear fluid, but no pus. I've tried everything I can think of and it's still there. Any ideas on what this could be or how I can make it go away?
Sounds like you may be dealing with a stubborn cyst or abscess on your nose. In such cases, a topical antibiotic ointment like Neosporin can help prevent infection and promote healing. You can apply it to the affected area twice a day. Additionally, warm compresses can help reduce inflammation and promote drainage. If the bump does not improve or if you develop fever or worsening pain, it's important to see a healthcare provider for further evaluation and possible drainage.

I'm really worried because I've been losing a lot of hair whenever I take a head bath or even when I'm just combing it. I recently had a case of typhoid fever, and now my hair feels really soft and seems to break easily. Could this be related to the fever, and what can I do to help my hair recover?

I've gone through a couple of PRP sessions, but my hair fall still isn't under control. It even looks worse now. How long does it usually take for PRP to start showing results in terms of controlling hair fall and promoting regrowth?
PRP (Platelet-rich Plasma) therapy typically requires 3-6 sessions, spaced 4-6 weeks apart, to achieve optimal results, and it may take 6-12 months to notice significant hair regrowth and reduction in hair fall, but individual responses vary, so consult your doctor to reassess and adjust your treatment plan, and consider combining PRP with other hair loss treatments, such as minoxidil or low-level laser therapy, for enhanced efficacy
