I've been feeling really worried because ever since I had Dengue back in November 2017, I've noticed a lot more hair falling out than usual. It's been happening every day and it's stressing me out. What do you think I should do? Is this normal after Dengue, or should I be looking into something else to help with the hair loss?

I've been using Betnovate GM cream for fairness for the past three years, mostly applying a thick layer at night. Recently, I noticed hair growth on my face and that my skin was getting thinner. When I looked up the side effects, I realized what might be going on. Since I stopped using the cream, my skin's become super dry, flaky, dull, itchy, and covered in red bumps. I'm really worried about this. What can I do to fix my skin condition?

I've been dealing with a bindi allergy for the last 5 years and I've tried so many ointments but nothing seems to work. Any ideas on what else I can do or try? It's been really frustrating, so I'm hoping for some advice.

I've been dealing with seborrheic dermatitis for about six months and have noticed I've lost almost 40% of my hair density. The hair loss stopped when I started treating the seborrhea, so I'm pretty sure that's what's behind it. My symptoms were mostly just bad dandruff, no itching or redness. Do you think my hair will grow back?
