View allI've been dealing with a lot of itching on my scalp and there's some pain too. My hair is still falling out even though I'm using folica hair tincture. Do you think it will help improve my condition or should I try something else? It's really worrying me.
If you are experiencing itching, pain, and hair loss on your scalp, using Folica hair tincture may help improve your condition. However, it is important to also address the underlying cause of your symptoms. I recommend using Folica hair tincture twice a day, applying it directly to the scalp and gently massaging it in. Additionally, you may consider using a medicated shampoo containing ketoconazole to help with the itching and inflammation. If your symptoms persist or worsen, it is advisable to consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and management.

I had a bandaid on my finger for a couple of days because of a cut, which seemed to have healed. When I took the bandaid off today though, my finger looked kinda weird. What could be going on? Should I be worried or do something about it?
it's likely that the skin under the band-aid has experienced skin irritation or contact dermatitis, possibly due to adhesive or friction; apply a topical antibiotic ointment and cover with a breathable dressing to promote healing, and consider switching to hypoallergenic band-aids or alternative wound dressings in the future.

I'm really concerned about my skin pigmentation. I've been using a skin shine cream for about a month now, and while it did make my skin look paler, once I stopped using it, I noticed the pigmentation came back. Is it safe to continue using this cream for a longer period? Or is there a better way to handle this so my skin doesn't keep reverting when I stop?
