I'm wondering if Mederma could actually help with some scars and old burn marks I've got on my thighs. They've been there a while, and I've just got these persistent spots that won't seem to go away. Do you think this cream would work for something like that?

I've been dealing with ringworm for a year now, and allopathy hasn't really helped. I've switched to Ayurveda, and it seems to be showing some good results. But I came across something online that mentioned Salicylic Acid or sapat lotion might work fast, like in just two days. I'm pretty frustrated at this point and would really appreciate an honest answer. Is there any truth to this idea?

I just got my blood test results and saw that my absolute eosinophil count is 700 cumm. Do you think this means I have an allergy? Could you let me know what I should do about it?

An absolute eosinophil count of 700 cumm may indicate an allergic reaction or an infection. To help reduce your symptoms, you can take Tablet Loratadine 10mg once daily for allergy relief. Additionally, you can use an over-the-counter nasal spray like Fluticasone propionate 50mcgspray, 2 sprays in each nostril once daily for nasal congestion. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
