I've had a greenish lump under the skin on the left side of my chest for 34 years. It doesn't hurt but has a nucleus, and lately I feel like it's gotten bigger. Could this be something serious and which specialist should I see? Would I need surgery to remove it?

View allI've had this strange lump near my elbow on the inside of my upper left arm for a few years now. It's about 1cm across, not really visible from the outside. When I touch it, it's kind of firm, but it doesn't hurt unless I press down hard. It feels circular, and I can almost flip it upside down if I try to. Should I be worried?

I've been dealing with serious hair fall and it's really stressing me out. My hair tends to be really fizzy, so I decided to try a rebonding treatment a few months back. At first, everything seemed fine for about four months, but now I'm losing around 50-60 hairs a day, and it's starting to freak me out. Could you please help me understand what's happening and what I should do?

I've been having some issues since taking a tablet for my kidney stones. My scalp has become really itchy, and I've noticed a lot of hair fall. Plus, I have adenomyosis, so I'm a bit worried about all these symptoms happening at once. Could they be related, or should I be looking at something else as the cause?
Hair fall and itchy scalp can be side effects of certain medications. In your case, it could be due to the tablet you took for kidney stones. I recommend using a medicated shampoo containing ketoconazole or selenium sulfide for your itchy scalp. For hair fall, you can try minoxidil solution on your scalp. As for adenomyosis, you may benefit from taking hormonal medications such as birth control pills or a progesterone-releasing intrauterine device (IUD) to help manage the symptoms.
