I've been having some issues since taking a tablet for my kidney stones. My scalp has become really itchy, and I've noticed a lot of hair fall. Plus, I have adenomyosis, so I'm a bit worried about all these symptoms happening at once. Could they be related, or should I be looking at something else as the cause?

Hair fall and itchy scalp can be side effects of certain medications. In your case, it could be due to the tablet you took for kidney stones. I recommend using a medicated shampoo containing ketoconazole or selenium sulfide for your itchy scalp. For hair fall, you can try minoxidil solution on your scalp. As for adenomyosis, you may benefit from taking hormonal medications such as birth control pills or a progesterone-releasing intrauterine device (IUD) to help manage the symptoms.

View allI'm really worried about this whole HIV testing thing. If I'm getting tested like two months after a possible exposure, is that result considered conclusive, or should I be thinking about getting tested again later just to be sure?
After 2 months, then hiv test after 6 months is advised to the patient.

I'm wondering if it's okay to use Evion 400 capsules together with Parachute Therapy scalp hair oil every day to keep from going bald, especially in the middle of my head. Also, I'm taking Gemcalds daily and AtorlipF for cholesterol. What are your thoughts on preventing hair loss while on these?
Using Evion 400 capsule along with Parachute Therapy scalp hair oil can be beneficial for preventing hair loss. Evion 400 contains Vitamin E which is good for hair health. You can take one Evion 400 capsule daily along with massaging Parachute Therapy scalp hair oil regularly for better results. In addition, continue taking Gemcal-ds capsule for overall health and Atorlip-F for reducing cholesterol. Remember to maintain a healthy diet and lifestyle for optimal hair health.

My mom, who's 55, got a pimple on her neck last month. The doctor recommended a Mantoux test, and from the results, they mentioned she might have skin TB. The thing is, except for that pimple, she doesn't have any other symptoms of TB. I'm wondering if just one Mantoux test is really enough to diagnose TB, or should we be looking into more tests? And also, is skin TB something that's curable? Would love some guidance on this.
yes skin tuberculosis is curable
