I'm thinking about starting this new treatment and it says to apply it at night. Should I be doing this every night? Also, how often do I need to shampoo my hair? I'm wondering if it's okay to just head to work the next day without washing my hair after applying it at night. Would love some advice on how to fit this into my routine!

I've got a pretty big boil on my left calf, and after a while, it started leaking pus and blood for around 15 days. It's been about 10 days since I began using antibiotics and ointment, as my dermatologist suggested, but it still isn't healing. I change the dressing with silver sulphadiazine gel every time. I'm really worried and wondering what might be going on. Any idea why it's not improving?

I've been prescribed Zydip C lotion for my dandruff, but I'm a bit confused about how many drops I should be using at once. Could you advise on the proper dosage or application for this?

You should use enough Zydip C lotion to cover the affected scalp area, typically around 10-20 drops per application. It is important to follow the instructions provided by your doctor for the best results.
