I've been dealing with a stubborn boil on my butt and it got really inflamed and red, so my doctor put me on antibiotics for five days. The swelling has gone down since then, but the boil isn't completely healed yet. It still oozes a bit of pus and blood when I squeeze it, though it's almost flat now. I'm just a bit worried because it's taking longer to heal than I expected. Do you think this is normal? Should I be doing anything else to help it heal completely?

I've been using Safi for the past two months to help with blood purification and acne, and so far, I haven't noticed any side effects. But I'm getting mixed messages; some people say it's safe, while others warn of possible side effects. I'm feeling a bit confused and wonder if it's okay to continue using it. Should I keep using Safi for its benefits, or are there risks I should be worried about? I really need some professional guidance on this.

Safi blood purifier is a herbal remedy that is commonly used for blood purification and acne. While some people may not experience any side effects from using Safi, it is important to note that herbal remedies can still have potential side effects and interactions with other medications. If you have been using Safi for 2 months without any noticeable side effects, it may be safe for you to continue using it. However, it is always a good idea to consult with a healthcare professional before starting or continuing any new medication or supplement. If you are looking for alternative options, you can consider using topical acne treatments containing benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid for acne, and maintaining a healthy diet and lifestyle for blood purification.

I'm really worried because I used Melacare cream about three years ago, and now my skin seems to have gotten darker. I've attached a photo for reference. Can you suggest any remedies or treatments that might help with this?

Can masturbation really cause hair loss? I'm experiencing a lot of hair thinning and I'm worried if it's linked to masturbating. Is this type of hair loss something that can be reversed?

Masturbation itself is not directly linked to hair loss. However, excessive stress, hormonal changes, or an imbalance caused by any behavior could contribute to hair thinning. If the hair loss is due to stress or hormonal factors, it may be reversible with proper care and treatment. It's important to consult a healthcare professional for a personalized approach.
