I've had multiple small lipomas on both hands for the past 23 years, with some on my stomach and chest too. About 12 of them hurt when pressed hard. New ones keep appearing, and some older ones are getting bigger. Every doctor I've seen says surgery is the only option, but there are so many and I'm worried about scarring. Is there a safe treatment that can stop new lipomas from forming?

I'm experiencing a lot of hair fall and I'm wondering about the best time to take the Tricogro tablet. Could you advise me on that? Also, are there any other medicines or treatments for hair growth that you would recommend? And about weight loss, I've noticed an increase of about 8kg over the past year. I've got excess fat and can't seem to figure out what to do. Any advice or medication suggestions for managing this weight gain would really help.

Good morning, I've been struggling with this ringworm thing for about 7 months now. I've tried all sorts of meds, but it keeps coming back. I even tried a turmeric and honey paste, and it seemed to work. No more itching or pain with that. Now, my doctor has put me on itraconazole 200 for a month in the mornings and some multi-vitamins and mineral capsules in the afternoons. I'm wondering if these are the best choices for me? Also, any tips on the best foods to eat or avoid during this time? Like, is it okay to have non-veg, milk, and curd?

I've been dealing with this fungal dandruff and have been using AF 150mg along with keto B lotion for a few weeks now. It seems like the dandruff's slightly better, but Im really wondering how much longer I should keep taking this medication? Do you think theres a specific time frame for this kind of treatment, or should I just continue until it's fully gone? I don't want to stop too soon and make things worse.

That takes time and needs special care continue the same medication as your doctor adviced and maintain personal hygiene for a better result.
