The combination of ZYDIP Lotion and TACRIVA ointment is commonly used to treat various skin conditions such as eczema, dermatitis, and psoriasis. ZYDIP Lotion contains Clobetasol propionate which is a strong corticosteroid that helps reduce inflammation and itching. TACRIVA ointment contains Tacrolimus which is an immunosuppressant that helps to reduce inflammation and relieve itching as well. The duration of treatment with this mixture can vary depending on the severity of the skin condition being treated. Typically, it is recommended to use this mixture for a few weeks to see improvement in symptoms. However, it is important to follow the dosage and duration of treatment as prescribed by your healthcare provider to avoid any potential side effects.

I'm really worried because I found this circular indentation on my chest, and now I have these reddish spots on my skin. There's a bit of pain, and I'm also having trouble breathing and swallowing properly. It's starting to freak me out. What could this be, and should I be really concerned about it?

if you had any injury recently in that area , get a chest xray done and proceed

I'm taking R89 but my hair is still falling out. What should I do now? I'm really worried about this. Can you help me?

You can try adding minoxidil solution to your hair care routine. You can apply minoxidil 5% solution twice daily on the scalp to promote hair growth and reduce hair fall. Additionally, make sure to maintain a healthy diet rich in vitamins and minerals essential for hair health, and avoid excessive heat styling or harsh chemical treatments on your hair.

I'm dealing with a skin issue that started with white patches about two weeks ago. When I visited my doctor, I was advised to use melanocyl ointment. After using it for a week, Ive noticed a new problem: my skin is now developing dark patches instead. I'm really concerned about why this is happening. Is it normal for the skin to react this way to the ointment, or should I be worried about an allergic reaction or side effect?

Stop using Melanocyl ointment immediately and consult your doctor, as the black patches may be a sign of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) or melanin overstimulation, and alternative treatments may be necessary.
