I've had these lumps in both my armpits for around two years now, and I'm starting to get a bit concerned. Do you think this is something serious? Are there any precautions I should be taking? Also, I'm not sure which doctor I should consult for thisany suggestions?

Considering your symptoms of high fever, frequent urination, and a persistent urge to urinate, it's possible that you have a urinary tract infection (UTI) . Your doctor has already advised Citralka and Dolo, which should help alleviate your symptoms.
In addition to your current medication, your doctor may recommend:
- Antibiotics: To treat the underlying UTI or bacterial infection.
- Pain relief medication: To manage any discomfort or pain while urinating.
- Fluid management: To ensure you're drinking enough water and managing your fluid intake.
It's essential to follow up with your doctor to monitor your condition and adjust your treatment plan as needed. If your symptoms worsen or you experience severe abdominal pain, vomiting, or blood in your urine, seek immediate medical attention.

I've noticed that the roots of my frontal hair seem really short and thin, almost like there's no root at all, but the rest of my hair has strong, long roots. I'm really worried about this difference. What could be causing it, and how can I improve the condition of the roots in the front?

I'm dealing with pattern baldness and have been using minoxidil 5% for about two years now. It seemed to help at first, but lately, it doesn't seem to be as effective. Could there be a reason why it's not working anymore? Any advice would be really appreciated.
Minoxidil 5% is a common treatment for pattern baldness (androgenetic alopecia). While it can be effective, its effectiveness may decrease over time.Receptor downregulation: Minoxidil works by binding to specific receptors. Prolonged use may lead to a decrease in receptor density, reducing the medication's effectiveness.Other factors: Poor scalp health, inadequate application, or concurrent medical conditions may also contribute to decreased effectiveness. Options to consider: 1. Consult a dermatologist: Discuss your concerns and explore alternative treatments, such as finasteride (oral medication), low-level laser therapy (LLLT), or platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy. 2. Combination therapy: Using minoxidil in combination with other treatments, such as finasteride or LLLT, may help maintain or enhance its effectiveness. 3. Scalp care: Maintain good scalp hygiene, and consider using scalp serums or shampoos that promote hair growth. 4. Realistic expectations: Understand that minoxidil is not a cure for pattern baldness, and its effectiveness may vary.
