Question 1

Is it okay to use Grocapix solution? Are there any side effects I should be worried about? Will it actually help in stopping hair loss and maybe even help regrow the lost hair? I've been prescribed Androanagen tablets along with the Grocapix solution. I'm also wondering, if I stop using these, is it gonna lead to more hair fall like it happens with minoxidil?

Accepted Answer

continue same treatment.

Question 2

I've been dealing with a fungal issue from a couple of years ago that cleared up with treatment. Now, the skin on my inner thigh is darkened, and when I rub it, black dirt seems to come off. I'm also a bit overweight. Is this discoloration a leftover from the infection, or is it possibly from my weight? What can I do to lighten the skin again?

Accepted Answer

The dark skin in the inner thigh area is likely due to a condition called acanthosis nigricans, which is often associated with obesity. To help improve the dark skin in the inner thigh area, you can try the following: 1. Maintain a healthy weight through diet and exercise. 2. Keep the area clean and dry to prevent further irritation. 3. Use a medicated cream containing hydroquinone or kojic acid to lighten the dark skin. Apply it as directed by your doctor. 4. Consider using an exfoliating scrub to help remove dead skin cells and lighten the area. 5. Consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and treatment options, such as laser therapy or chemical peels, if needed. Remember to continue practicing good hygiene and maintaining a healthy lifestyle to prevent further skin issues.

Question 3

I've got these white patches on my neck and shoulder again after 5 years. It's really puzzling why they've returned after such a long time. I've been using the same cream and dusting powder from before, Clotrimazole Powder and Fourderm, for about a month now, but theres just no sign of them getting better. Could you help me figure out what's going on, and what else I might try? Would appreciate any insights you have!

Accepted Answer

The recurrence of white patches on your neck and shoulder area after 5 years could be due to a fungal infection, such as pityriasis versicolor, which can be triggered by factors like hormonal changes, stress, or sun exposure; despite using Clotrimazole Powder and Fourderm cream, the lack of improvement suggests you may need to consult a dermatologist for a revised diagnosis and treatment plan, which may include alternative antifungal medications, lifestyle changes, or other therapies to address the underlying cause.

Ecg and x-ray chest is advised to the patient.
