I've been a bit worried about my hair lately. I shaved my head around three months ago, and while most of my hair seems to have grown back normally, the crown of my head appears less dense. After shaving, I started using onion juice, and I noticed that when my hair is wet, you can see my scalp under the light. I recently trimmed my hair to about 1.5 inches, and now it looks denser. Before shaving, my hair seemed normal and didn't have any bald spots, plus using Fortene anti-dandruff shampoo helped with my dandruff issues. Could this be early signs of baldness, or am I overthinking it?

I'm feeling a bit unsure about how to properly use the Clindac A gel and Dervia CMS gel that my doctor recommended. Could you give me some guidance on the right way to apply them, like the order or if there's a specific routine to follow? I'm just worried about not using them correctly and want to make sure I get the best results. What's the best approach here?
To use Clindac A gel, you should first wash the affected area with a mild cleanser and pat it dry. Then, apply a thin layer of the gel to the affected skin once or twice daily, as directed by your doctor. Make sure to avoid contact with eyes, mouth, and other mucous membranes. For Dervia CMS gel, you should also clean the affected area before application. Apply a small amount of the gel to the affected skin once daily, preferably in the evening. Gently massage it into the skin until it is absorbed. Both gels are for external use only.

I've been dealing with a pretty serious skin allergy lately, and it's been driving me crazy with all the itching. Got these small red pimples popping up on my hands and all over my body. It's like never-ending itching and rashes, and it sucks. I've already tried taking Avil 50, like about six tablets, one each day, hoping it might be some kind of allergy thing, but nothing's really changed. Could you suggest something that might actually help?
Sounds like you are experiencing a severe allergic reaction. I recommend you take a combination of Cetirizine (brand name Zyrtec) 10mg once daily and Hydrocortisone cream for topical application on the affected areas twice a day. Additionally, you can take Ranitidine (brand name Zantac) 150mg twice daily to help reduce the allergic response. Make sure to avoid any known triggers and keep the affected areas clean and moisturized.
