Question 1

I've had a cyst on my head for the past two years and have been using homeopathy to manage it. The size goes down when I take the medicine but starts growing again if I stop. Could this be cancer? Should I consider surgery? My family is really worried about this

Accepted Answer

Cyst regrowth after homeopathy suggests surgical removal; most scalp cysts are benign but biopsy confirms.

Question 2

I'm worried because I've been using this melamite cream for a couple of years to clear up my pimples. A friend recommended it, and it worked, but now if I try to stop using it, my face gets all red and starts burning. I really want to stop using this cream, but I don't know how to do it without these side effects. Do you know of any easy and fast ways to help me quit using it?

Accepted Answer

First of all, it's important to discontinue the use of Melamite cream to prevent further irritation. You can soothe your skin by using a gentle cleanser and applying a moisturizer with ingredients like aloe vera or hyaluronic acid. To help with the redness and burning sensation, you can use a topical corticosteroid cream like Hydrocortisone cream twice a day for a few days. Additionally, an over-the-counter antihistamine like Cetirizine can help reduce any itching or inflammation. Make sure to protect your skin from the sun and avoid harsh skincare products during this time. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and management.
