I'm really worried about my hairline; it's receding and my hair is getting super thin. I went to see a doctor and he prescribed me Tricosilk Max 5, but I didnt notice any improvement, so I stopped seeing him. A while later, I started using Tricosilk again, but now that it's unavailable, I switched to Mintop 5. Is it okay to continue with this? Should I be doing something else?

I've been dealing with ringworm for over two months now, and I'm really worried. I've got some Dazit tablets and Itzzh Livafin cream, and I've also read about using Mupin.
