I'm using the Sebamed sunscreen with SPF 50, and it seems to be working fine for me. But I'm a bit confused and worried about whether it's safe to use SPF 50 all the time, especially since I can't find the Sebamed sunscreen lotion with SPF 30. They do have a spray version with SPF 30, but I'm not sure if a spray is as effective. I've read some advice from doctors that sprays might not be as good. Can you help me figure out if I'm using the right sunscreen? I'm also using a face wash and moisturizer from the same brand.

I'm 25 and I've been using Cloben G for a couple of months, but now that I've stopped, my face has turned red and it's super itchy with these rashes. I'm really not sure what to do next. Can you help me figure out what's going on?

This could be due to withdrawal effects or rebound effects from the steroid in the cream. To help with the redness and itching, you can try using a mild topical corticosteroid like hydrocortisone cream twice a day on the affected areas. Additionally, you can take an oral antihistamine like cetirizine once daily to help with the itching. Make sure to keep your skin moisturized and avoid any harsh skincare products. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and management.

I'm a bit concerned because I started using the proanagen solution for my hair fall just like the doc suggested, but after just one use, my hair fall seems to have gotten much worse. Should I keep using it, or is this a sign I should stop? What do you think I should do?

I'm really struggling with acne and someone mentioned trying blood purifiers like Safi. There are claims it helps with clear skin, but I'm skeptical and feeling a bit worried about using it. Can these kinds of blood purifiers actually make a difference with acne, or is it just a myth? What should I consider before trying something like this?

Safi is a popular blood purifier that contains ingredients like Neem, Tulsi, and Chiraita which are known for their skin-clearing properties. It can help in maintaining clear skin and controlling acne when taken regularly. The recommended dosage for Safi is usually 10ml to 20ml twice a day after meals.
