I've had my hair chemically treated with a keratin treatment recently, and now I'm experiencing a lot of hair fall. I'm concerned and wondering if it's safe or effective to start using Follihair tablets for this issue. Could this help with my hair fall problem?

I've got this black mole on the left side of my nose, and it's about 5mm wide and 2mm thick. I'm really hoping to get it removed without any scarring. Could you let me know who I should reach out to for this and what it might cost?

I'm really struggling with a mouth ulcer that's been bothering me for the past three months. I've tried seeing a few different doctors, and they've prescribed a bunch of meds like Becosules, Oflox 200, Glenora gel, Lerobaet 500, Oraways gel, and Zincovit tablets. I've attached an image, but nothing seems to be working, and it's getting really uncomfortable. Any idea why this is happening or what else I can try for some relief?

I've had this thing that looks like ringworm on my neck for a few months now. My doctor prescribed the strongest cream they have, but it's still not going away. I'm really worried and confused about why it's not healing. Could it be something else or am I doing something wrong? Any advice would be appreciated.

Persistent ringworm infections may require a different approach. In such cases, oral antifungal medications may be necessary. I recommend speaking to your doctor about trying oral antifungal medication such as Terbinafine (brand name Lamisil) at a dosage of 250mg once daily for several weeks. This should help to effectively treat the ringworm infection on your neck.
