I'm really worried because I keep getting these ringworms and pustules only on my face, especially in the summer. I've had ringworm three different times in the last six years, but always just on my face and not elsewhere on my body. I'm not sure why this keeps happening. Could it be something specific to facial skin, or maybe it's related to something else I'm not aware of? Any advice on how to deal with this would be really appreciated.

I've got these bald patches on the front part of my head, and my doctor said it's hormonal. They've advised me to use Hair4U 2 daily in the evenings. Now, I'm thinking about trying onion juice before washing my hair, but I'm not sure if it's okay to use both the onion juice and the Hair4U spray together. Can I mix these treatments, or should I be careful about it?

You may be suffering from androgenic alopecia which is also called as pattern baldness. The hairs start reducing in density at the crown (top) and also the hairline starts refeeding from the front. This is usually progressive throughout life unless treated. This may also be accompanied by severe dandruff. The FDA approved treatment for this condition is a lotion and tablets. There is no other alternative. No oil or cream will magically work because the hairs are getting miniaturised and eventually disappearing due to the hormonal effects on the hair roots. Along with this, you can also consider platelet rich plasma therapy for faster results. consult dermatologist

I'm really concerned because two days ago, something, probably an insect, bit me on my upper stomach. It's super itchy and feels really hard to the touch. Could you recommend any ointment or treatment that might give me some relief?
