Question

I've been dealing with an abscess on my buttocks for the last 8 months, and it just won't go away. It causes a lot of itching, and now I've even noticed black spots appearing. It's really frustrating. What can I do to get rid of the abscess, the itching, and these black spots?

Question

I've been prescribed Keraglo AD antidandruff shampoo, Keraglo XL serum, and Keraglo Men tablets for my hair fall problem, but I'm a bit hesitant and have a few questions. I plan on just using the shampoo and tablets for now, but should I consider using the serum too? Also, I'm curious if there are any side effects I should be aware of with these products. The shampoo has ingredients like Aloe Vera, D-Panthenol, Ichthyol Pale, and Ketoconazole. The serum has Biochanin A, Tetrapeptide-3, and Acetyl Kera XL, with almond oil and Vitamin E. For the tablets, they contain Biotin, Calcium Pantothenate, Elemental Copper, Elemental Selenium, Elemental Zinc, and N-Acetyl L-Cysteine. Any advice would be really appreciated!

Question

I'm looking for a minoxidil product at 5% strength that doesn't have alcohol or propylene glycol. The one I'm using right now is in lotion form, but it's causing some really bad itching. Do you have any recommendations for something else I could try?

Question

I'm looking for a skin whitening cream that works well for both my face and body. I want something that provides maximum benefits and shows quick results. Can you recommend a good one?
