I've had this white mark on my skin where I used to place a bindi, and it's been there for about a year. I stopped using the bindi because I thought the glue might be causing it, and switched to sindoor, but that didn't help either. The white spot has grown and now it itches, so I can't even use sindoor or tika on it. I'm 60 years old and I'm worried about what this could be. Could you please advise?

That could be due to allergy,visit dermatologist for appropriate management because that might need nourishing moisturiser and steroid based lotion

View allI'm dealing with some serious hair fall issues and just saw a dermatologist recently. She prescribed me a tablet that has 10 mg of biotin, 100 mg of calcium pantothenate, and 50 mg of N-acetyl cysteine in each dose. I'm a bit concerned about whether this is a safe dosage to be taking. Could you give me some guidance on this?
Safety of Hair Loss Medication_ The prescribed tablet contains: 1. _Biotin (10 mg)_: A safe and effective dose for hair loss, promoting hair growth and strengthening hair follicles. 2. _Calcium Pantothenate (100 mg)_: A form of Vitamin B5, which is essential for hair growth. This dose is within the recommended daily intake. 3. _N-Acetyl Cysteine (NAC) (50 mg)_: An amino acid that supports hair growth and reduces oxidative stress. This dose is relatively low and considered safe. The combination and dosages of these ingredients are generally considered safe and effective for addressing hair loss. However, it's essential to: *Follow your dermatologist's instructions *Monitor your body's response to the medication *Report any adverse effects or concerns to your dermatologist

I'm getting married on December 23, and I'm worried because my skin just isn't glowing. It seems really dull no matter what I try, and nothing is working. Do you have any suggestions for a medical facial that could help bring back that glow?
SPF 30 can be used.

I accidentally spilled hot water on a sensitive area and now there's a red mark and it's bleeding a bit. I'm really worried and not sure what to do. Are there any home remedies you'd recommend to help it heal? Also, is there anything specific I should avoid doing?
Just leave it it would heal on its own,if its becoming worse,visit Urologist for appropriate management.
