Question 1

I'm a 21-year-old girl and last November and December, I suffered from typhoid. Since I started recovering fully in January, Ive noticed that my hair is falling out a lot. I used to have long, thick hair, but now its really thinning, and I can even see bald spots. I'm worried and I really dont want to shave my head. How long can I expect it to take for my hair to grow back to normal, and is there anything I can do to speed up the process? Will not shaving be a problem?

Accepted Answer

Minoxidil 5. for local application ,once daily for 3-6 weeks is advised, tab finasteride 5 mg once daily for 3-6 weeks is advised to the patient.

Question 2

I just really want to understand how much hair fall is considered normal each day. Sometimes I notice around 67 hairs falling out, and other times it's like 30 to 40. I'm also using Laxet forte tablets and applying Diprovate Plus lotion on my scalp, as my doctor advised. Should I be rubbing in the lotion or just spraying it on my scalp? And is there a chance this might help with regrowth?

Accepted Answer

Normal hair fall per day is 50-100 strands,you are using appropriate treatment you can continue that,u have to gently massage prescribed amount of lotion evenly over scalp.

Question 3

I've been noticing these dark bruise-like marks showing up on my lower legs for the last 8 months, and no matter what, they just won't fade away. It's kind of worrying me because they keep increasing. I am on the heavier side, and I'm wondering if my weight might be causing these haematomas, especially when there's pressure on certain spots of my legs. I've talked to a couple of doctors, but none seem to really get what's going on or how to treat it. Is there something else I could try, or some insight I might be missing?

Accepted Answer

See a specialist for accurate diagnosis and targeted treatment.

I'm three weeks post-cesarean delivery, and I've been experiencing significant itching around my stomach, back, and legs. It's become much worse at night. What could be causing this, and what should I do about it?

That could be fungal infcetion,visit dermatologist for appropriate treatmen,personal hygiene is more important for a better result.
