I've been dealing with a really oily scalp and it's causing a lot of hair fall. It's quite concerning. Someone suggested Kevon lotion for this condition, seborrheic dermatitis. Is it really effective? Can I use it without worrying about any side effects? Would love to hear some advice!

I've been struggling with ringworm for a year nowit just keeps coming and going. Every time I start on my medicines, it seems to get better, but when I stop, it just comes back after a few days. I'm taking ityza 100 mg twice daily and there's another one for allergy I take once a day. Plus, I'm using terbinafine cream.

I've noticed something strange with my beard recently. Some of the hairs are turning brown and a few even light brown, which is odd because all my other body hair is still black.
