I've got this boil on my right testicle that showed up a couple of days ago. Yesterday, pus started coming out of it, and the area around it is really hard and constantly hurts. I'm not sure what to do. Can you help me figure this out?

I've been having some hair loss issues even after taking Adgain capsules about 6 months ago, which my doctor recommended. Is it okay if I start taking them again, or is there something else I should try first? I'm a bit worried and would appreciate any advice.

Adgain capsule is a combination of Biotin, Amino Acids, Minerals, and Vitamins, which is commonly used to promote hair growth and prevent hair loss. It is safe to take Adgain capsule again for hair loss. The usual dosage is 1 capsule daily after meals for at least 3-6 months for best results.

I'm really worried about a burn scar from Dettol. Does anyone know whether it's going to be a permanent mark or will it eventually fade away? And if it does heal, how long does it normally take for new skin to develop?
