I've been struggling with psoriasis on my hands, and I'm currently using Acrotac. It doesn't seem to be working anymore, and I'm worried about what to try next that won't come with a bunch of side effects. Could you suggest some alternative treatments or medications? Id really appreciate your advice!

Got diagnosed with chicken pox today and consulted two doctors, but they both only suggested taking dolo 650. I'm seeing reviews though where other doctors mention antivirals for treatment. Just feeling a bit anxious here. Should I be taking some other medication too?

I'm a bit worried about the MINOZ ER 45 that my doctor gave me for my acne. I'm supposed to take it for 6 months. Can you tell me if it's a steroid or just an antibiotic?

Gradually reduce the use of Panderm Plus, switch to a gentle moisturizer, and consider using acne treatment options that dont involve steroids. Consulting with a dermatologist is always a great next step to find a tailored solution for your skin.

I'm a 23-year-old woman dealing with really thin, dry hair and tons of split ends. My hairline has noticeably thinned, especially in the front, making my forehead look bigger. I really want to regrow some new hair. I've tried a bunch of things like Arish and Parampara hair oils, and even KeyaSeth, but nothing has worked. The thinning started around eight or nine years ago, probably because I was using way too much shampoo when I was younger. I used Amway shampoo every day back in 8th grade, and it really messed up my hair. I also tried onion juice and bhringraj oil, but that didn't help either. This summer has been especially bad with all the hair fall. Is there anything else I can do to fix this?
