I'm really worried about my 13-year-old daughter's hair loss due to Lichen PlanoPilaris. The doctors at PGIMER diagnosed it after a biopsy, but we've been dealing with this for seven years now. I've heard about a medicine called REFOLLIUM that might help regrow her hair. Is it safe and effective for her condition?

I've been using hh lite cream for a couple of months and while it worked instantly, my face got darker once I stopped. My doctor recommended trying loprolif 0.1 ointment and neoskin moisturizer, but I'm only seeing a little improvement. Is this the best treatment plan, or is there something else I should consider? I'm really worried about getting my original complexion back. Would love some advice!

Continue same treatment.

I've been dealing with a fungal infection in the area between my breasts for about a week now, and I'm not sure what to do. It's really uncomfortable, and Im worried about how to get rid of it. Can you help me figure out a solution to eliminate this problem?

You can use Clotrimazole cream twice a day on the affected area for 2-4 weeks. Additionally, you can take Fluconazole tablets 150mg once a week for 2-4 weeks to treat the infection effectively. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry to prevent further fungal growth.
