I'm using Cipla 8x shampoo and it's been great for my dandruff and hair fall for months, but now, all of a sudden, my hair is starting to fall again. I've been using it twice a week for nearly 8 months. Could the shampoo be losing its effectiveness with regular use? Or is using it twice a week too much? What should I do?

It's possible that the effectiveness of the shampoo may decrease over time with frequent use. In such cases, it's a good idea to switch to a different anti-dandruff shampoo for a while and then you can come back to using Cipla 8X shampoo later on.

I'm dealing with a recurring corn in the same spot even after having it surgically removed. I'm considering going the ayurvedic route, maybe even something like agnikarma. My big worry is, will the skin grow back normally there? And if so, how long does that usually take? Also, I'm curious about how laser removal works for this. How does the skin heal afterward?

To address your concerns, skin regrowth after surgical removal of a corn can take several weeks to months, Agnikarma is a traditional Ayurvedic treatment that can be effective in removing corns, and laser removal uses high-intensity light to target and remove affected skin tissue, with skin recovery typically taking a few days to a week.

I have a pyogenic granuloma on my scalp and I'm a bit worried. Is it harmful if I just leave it alone? Could this be some kind of cancer? Also, are there any treatments I can try at home without needing surgery?
