I'm really worried about this painful thing that hasn't gone away in a week. Is there any chance it could be cancer? What should I do?

I understand your concern, and Im here to help. Painful lumps lasting over a week are usually not cancer, but they could be an infection, cyst, or another condition needing attention. Please see a doctor promptly for an examination and proper treatment.

I'm dealing with hair fall because of seborrheic dermatitis, and I'm wondering if my hair will grow back naturally once the infection gets better. Do I need to worry about getting some sort of treatment like a transplant or taking medication, or can I expect my hair to regrow on its own? If it does grow back naturally, how long would that usually take? Id really appreciate your honest advice.

Hair fall due to seborrheic dermatitis can improve once the infection is treated. You may not necessarily need procedural treatments like transplants. Medications such as ketoconazole shampoo can help manage seborrheic dermatitis and promote hair regrowth. It may take several weeks to a few months for hair to regrow after the infection has been treated effectively.
