I'm just 24 and I've already started noticing gray hair and quite a bit of hair loss. It seems like I'm losing about 2400 hairs every day, especially when I'm combing or taking a shower. Is this normal? What might be causing it, and what can I do about it?

I'm really worried about my hand. The back of my palm has turned black, and it's super dry. I've been using olive oil for the past four days, hoping it'll help, but I'm not sure if it's working. I've also been using hand sanitizer and Dettol hand wash a lot. Could that be affecting my skin? Is this why my hand looks like this? I've got some photos of it too.

Yes you can use it no problem, visit Dermatologist for appropriate treatment

I recently had a mole removed using a blade, and they stopped the bleeding with heat. Now I've noticed there's a small crater where the mole was. I'm keeping it clean with soap and water, applying the ointment my doctor recommended, and covering it with a bandage. I'm just a bit worried thoughwill this crater eventually fill in as everything heals?

Yes that will heal no problem,follow your doctors advice
