I've been dealing with dandruff, hair fall, and a flaky scalp, and after seeing the doctor today, he prescribed KEVON ZIP lotion. Now I'm confused because he told me to apply it two hours before washing my hair, but when I got home and read the directions, it says to use it on wet hair for only 3 minutes. So, which method is actually correct? He also recommended Fidelia Shampoo and BTN ultra tablets for a 30-day course. Just wondering if this treatment plan sounds right to you, or if I should consider any other options?

-Its best to follow your doctors advice and apply KEVON ZIP lotion 2 hours before your head bath. For the shampoo, use Fidelia as directed, and take the BTN Ultra tablets for 30 days. Always follow the prescribed instructions for optimal results.

I've had a burn scar on my left chest since I was 3 when boiling water spilled on me. Now that I'm 18, it gets really irritated and tender by the end of the day when my clothes rub against it. Sometimes there's this dull, stabbing pain too. I've been using aloe vera gel, which helps cool it down, but once it dries, the irritation comes back. There's no inflammation or infection, though. Do you think I should see a doctor about this?

Yes that needs evaluation,visit Dermatologist for appropriate management

I've been dealing with keloid scars on my chest and shoulder that keep getting bigger and itch a lot. It seems to run in my family since my grandfather, father, and uncle all had them too. My uncle tried steroid injections and surgery but had bad results are there other treatment options that might work better for me?
