I've got this corn on the bottom of my foot that's causing me quite a bit of pain, especially when I walk. I even tried using corn caps, but they didn't really work. It's getting really frustrating. Do you have any advice on what I should do next?

I'm curious about the combination of using Zydip lotion with coconut oil for hair growth and Nintop lotion in the morning.

What should I expect, and are there any side effects I should watch out for?

It sounds like your doctor has put together a comprehensive treatment plan to help with hair regrowth, and Zydip lotion with coconut oil combined with Nintop is a solid approach.
