Question

I've been noticing more than 50 hairs falling out every day, and they often have a white bulb at the root. Should I be worried about this? What could be causing it, and is there something I should do to stop it?

its normal to loose 50 to 100 strands in a day if it is bothering you much visit dermatologist for evaluating the cause of hairfall and for appropriate treatment.

Question

I've noticed a couple of small black spots on my scrotum that are about the size of a pimple. I'm really worried because I don't know what these could be. It's a bit embarrassing to talk about, but I recently shaved down there and it even bled from one of the spots. It healed but then the spot formed again. Can you help me understand what's going on?

Question

I've been dealing with this really annoying itch on my scalp for over 1520 days now. I've tried dandruff shampoos and even mixed tea tree oil with coconut oil, but nothing seems to help. There's definitely no lice or dandruff, and thankfully, my hair isn't falling out in clumps or anything, just the usual few strands. I'm starting to think this all began after I used a certain type of mehndi on my hair. Could that be the cause? What should I do next?

Question

I've been using a clindamycin gel and isotretinoin tablet for my acne and scars for about 12 days now, but my skin seems to be getting oilier and I'm not seeing much improvement. In fact, I feel like my acne is more noticeable. Do you think I should stop using them, or is this normal and I should give it more time?
