Question

I've been diagnosed with scalp psoriasis, and I'm seeing some dry red patches. My doctor prescribed some ointments and vitamin tablets, but I've kind of forgotten what exactly I'm supposed to do. I'm wondering if it's okay to use Momate S cream on my scalp because it's really dry and patchy. Could you offer some advice on this?

Question

I've been using HH Lite cream at night, and it's really helped clear up my acne quite a bit. But Ive noticed my face tends to stay red a lot now. Also, whenever I have a night out with alcohol, I seem to break out with acne the next day. I tried taking an LCZ tablet for what I think might be an allergy, and it seems to help, but only to a certain extent. I'm curious about whether there are any side effects from this mix of treatments. Is there an alternative to HH Lite that might not cause redness or react with alcohol?

Question

I'm really concerned about my hair. It used to be so thick back in college, but now I've noticed my scalp is showing more on the top of my head. I don't see much hair falling out, but I have less hair and some of it's turning grey. I went to a doctor recently, and they just gave me a prescription without even checking into the problem. I'm trying to figure out what's causing my visible scalp and potential baldness. Any advice on what steps I should take?

Question

I'm wondering if it's safe to use Kz soap on my hair for dandruff. I know it has ketoconazole, so I'm curious if it's effective and okay to use for that purpose. What do you think?
