I've been dealing with this itching all over my body for about 4 weeks now, ever since I had surgery to remove a nail from my femur. They used total anesthesia. It's so frustrating, especially at nightit keeps me from sleeping. I'm not sure if this itching is normal after surgery. And now, I've started experiencing some shortness of breath. Could this be related to anxiety or is it something else entirely? I'd really appreciate some guidance on this.

View allI've had vitiligo for 12 years with white patches on my hands and feet. I've tried medications like Melanocyl and currently take Trioxsalen tablets, Trimop forte, and Betamethasone sodium phosphate tablets. Is there a faster, more permanent solution through surgery? What kind of surgery would work and where can I get it done?
Surgical options like melanocyte transplantation or grafting may help stable vitiligo. Check centers like AIIMS, PGIMER, or private dermatology clinics.

I noticed something strange with my hair today. I have dark hair and found this one strand that was really weird the top part was white, but closer to the root, it was black. Only this one strand was like that. I plucked it out, but now I'm just curious, why would this happen? Is this something I should be worried about?
low keratin levels, advised tab .biotin orally,once daily for 3 months.

I've got a bit of a dilemma here. When I was a kid, I came down with typhoid, and my doctor had me take roxithromycin. Not long after, I noticed a little white spot on my skin and ever since then, I've avoided that medication. Now, I'm down with fever, cough, and a cold, and another doctor has prescribed me roxid 150. I'm really worried about taking it because of my past experience. Do you think it's safe for me to take, or should I consider an alternative? Would love some guidance here.
Roxid 150 is also a form of Roxithromycin, so it may not be suitable for you if you had a reaction to it in the past. An alternative antibiotic that can be considered for your current symptoms of fever, cough, and cold is Azithromycin. You can take Azithromycin 500mg once daily for 3 days. However, it is important to consult with your doctor before starting any new medication to ensure it is safe and appropriate for you.
