I've been dealing with exfoliative cheilitis for around 6 years now, ever since I started taking some antibiotics, and it's been really tough. My lips get all flaky and dry, and the skin turns white when it hits water. There's even this white vermilion line forming where my lips touch. I'm really curious if there's any kind of treatment that can help with this. Any advice would be great!

View allI'm using Cipla 8x shampoo and it's been great for my dandruff and hair fall for months, but now, all of a sudden, my hair is starting to fall again. I've been using it twice a week for nearly 8 months. Could the shampoo be losing its effectiveness with regular use? Or is using it twice a week too much? What should I do?
It's possible that the effectiveness of the shampoo may decrease over time with frequent use. In such cases, it's a good idea to switch to a different anti-dandruff shampoo for a while and then you can come back to using Cipla 8X shampoo later on.

I'm dealing with a pretty annoying fungal issue on both of my legs, and there's these big round rings. It's just redness, no itching at all, but I can't seem to get rid of them. I've been taking Fluka and Terbinafine, but I'm worried they aren't enough or maybe I'm missing something. Any idea what's going on or what else I should try?
It sounds like you may be dealing with a fungal infection known as ringworm. Fluka (Fluconazole) and Terbinafine are commonly used antifungal medications. In addition to these, you can also consider using an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole twice a day on the affected areas. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry, and wear loose-fitting clothing to help the medication work effectively.

I'm thinking about doing PRP therapy for my hair, but I smoke marijuana, and I'm worried it might affect the results. Should I stop smoking before and after the treatment, and if so, for how long?
yes
