Question

I'm really struggling with some intense dandruff that's all over my hair, and it's gotten so bad you can see the flakes just sitting on my hair, even from a distance. It's also becoming super irritating whenever I try to wash my hair, and now I've noticed I've got lice as well. What can I do to fix this? I'm really worried.

Question

I'm dealing with a really uncomfortable issue with my right breast. The skin on my areola is peeling and it's constantly sticking to my bra. When I take my bra off, the skin comes off too and it's quite painful. I had eczema a few years back with similar symptoms but that cleared up with aloe vera after about two months. This time it seems worse and isn't as itchy, just sometimes. It's sore and a bit reddish. I'm worried and wondering if it's possible to be dealing with something serious like cancer at my age. It's really freaking me out and I'm not sure what to do.

Question

I've noticed that after I smoke, my face gets bloated and my eyebags really stand out. I do cardio and hit the gym every day. Could you suggest what might be going on and how I can deal with it?

Question

I had a bike accident a few days ago and ended up with some skin scrapes. I've attached a photo. I'm trying to decide between using Betadine or Tbact mupirocin. Can you help me understand the difference between the two, and which one might be better for healing this kind of wound?
