I've got a question about Perlice Lotion. Dr. Aamir Siddiqui suggested it for my mom when she had dandruff and lice a few months ago. I'm wondering if it's okay to use it again or if there's a better option now. What do you think?

I'm noticing a thin black line on the nail of my right thumb, and it seems to be permanent. It's been there for a while, grows with the nail, and isn't just a stain or mark that can be washed off. I recently came across some information online suggesting it might be a sign of melanoma, which is a bit worrying. I'm aware that online info can sometimes be exaggerated, but I want to be sure there's nothing serious going on. Could this be a cause for concern?

Probable diagnosis is psoriasis,eczema,hypothyroidism,injury,rheumatoid arhritis, melanonychia,Hiv,cancer and anemia etc. vit b12 deficiency .Most causes of black lines do not require treatment..Melanoma is a exception.Treatment of the underlying cause .

Is there any surgery or treatment that can reverse white hair and bring back my natural black color? I started getting white hair when I was just 15, and now at 33, it's becoming more noticeable. I'm curious if there's a way to treat this and restore my original hair color.

No, there is no known surgery or treatment that can reverse white hair and restore the natural black color if the cause is genetic or aging. Once a hair follicle loses its ability to produce melanin, the pigment responsible for hair color, it will no longer produce colored hair strands. However, if premature graying is due to underlying health issues or nutritional deficiencies, addressing these factors may help to slow down or even reverse the process.

I'm dealing with an infection in my private area since last July. I've tried different treatments, but there's always a small patch that never fully heals, and then another one appears. I've used plenty of medicines and creams, but the issue just won't go away. Any advice on what I should do next?

When scheduled for a thyroid function test (TFT), it's recommended to withhold Thyronorm (levothyroxine) for 24-48 hours before the blood test. Taking Thyronorm on the day of the test may affect the accuracy of the results, particularly the TSH levels. Stop Thyronorm 24-48 hours prior to the test. Consult your doctor or endocrinologist for personalized advice. Follow instructions to ensure accurate test results. Reschedule the test if you've taken Thyronorm on the same day
