I've been struggling with really dark underarms and it's bothering me a lot. I just want them to look like the rest of my skin. Do you have any advice on how to achieve this, and maybe tips on keeping them that way? I'm really curious and a bit worried about what might work best.

I'm really struggling with a mouth ulcer that's been bothering me for the past three months. I've tried seeing a few different doctors, and they've prescribed a bunch of meds like Becosules, Oflox 200, Glenora gel, Lerobaet 500, Oraways gel, and Zincovit tablets. I've attached an image, but nothing seems to be working, and it's getting really uncomfortable. Any idea why this is happening or what else I can try for some relief?

I'm really worried because after my second PRP treatment, I'm experiencing a lot more hair fall than after the first session. The hair fall after the first session seemed normal and even slowed down a lot after about 15 days, but this time it's pretty serious. I'm not using minoxidil or finasteride. Is this kind of hair shedding normal after PRP treatments? Should I be concerned?
After undergoing PRP treatment, it is normal to experience some hair shedding as part of the hair growth cycle. However, experiencing a sudden increase in hair fall after the second sitting can be concerning. It is important to monitor this closely and discuss it with your healthcare provider. In the meantime, you can consider using a gentle hair care routine and incorporating a hair growth promoting shampoo containing minoxidil and finasteride. Additionally, you may benefit from using a supplement like biotin to support hair health. If the hair fall persists or worsens, it is advisable to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
