I've been using R89 homeopathic medicine for my hair fall, but I'm still noticing some hair strands coming out when I run my fingers through my hair. How long does it usually take to see good results?

View allI'm really curious about how glycolic acid cream works, especially if I'm already using benzoyl peroxide 2.5% for my acne. My skin is pretty sensitive, so I'm worried about potential reactions. What's the best way to use these products together to avoid irritating my skin? Any tips would be super helpful!
Glycolic acid cream works by exfoliating the skin, unclogging pores, and promoting skin cell turnover, which can help improve acne. When used in conjunction with benzoyl peroxide 2.5%, it can enhance the effectiveness of the treatment by further exfoliating the skin and reducing inflammation. For sensitive skin, it is important to start with a lower concentration of glycolic acid (around 5-8%) and gradually increase the frequency of use as tolerated. It is recommended to apply a small amount of glycolic acid cream to clean, dry skin once every other day initially, and then increase to daily use if there is no irritation. Always follow up with a moisturizer and use a sunscreen during the day when using glycolic acid, as it can increase sun sensitivity.

I'm dealing with ringworms and it's really itchy and annoying. It goes away for a bit but then comes back. What should I do? I've tried using excel m but it's not helping much.
Ringworm can be frustrating and uncomfortable. Understanding Ringworm Ringworm, also known as dermatophytosis, is a fungal infection that affects the skin. It's highly contagious and can be spread through direct contact with an infected person, animal, or contaminated surface. Why Ringworm Keeps Coming Back The recurrence of ringworm can be due to several factors: 1. Incomplete treatment: If the treatment is not completed or is not effective, the fungus may not be fully eliminated, leading to recurrence. 2. Contaminated environment: If the environment is not properly cleaned and disinfected, the fungus can survive and re-infect you. 3. Weakened immune system: A weakened immune system can make you more susceptible to fungal infections, including ringworm. 4. Skin-to-skin contact: Direct contact with an infected person or animal can spread the infection.

I've been dealing with white bumps on my back and front area after waxing, and it's been about three days now. They're painful and super itchy. Do you have any advice on what might help?
You may be experiencing folliculitis, which is inflammation of the hair follicles. You can try using an over-the-counter hydrocortisone cream to reduce the inflammation and itching. Additionally, you can take an oral antihistamine like cetirizine to help with the itching. To prevent infection, you can apply an antibiotic ointment like Neosporin.
