I've noticed that a lot of my hair is falling out, especially in the middle of my head where there's now a round patch with only a few hairs left. I'm 42 and really worried about losing more hair and going completely bald. Could you suggest any treatments to help save what's left? I'm based in Mumbai.

Do you think getting a manicure and pedicure at the beauty parlour is safe, or could it potentially cause some harm? And how do I know which are the best types of these treatments to choose?
when done properly, but there are potential risks: *Benefits* 1. *Improved nail health*: Trimming, cutting, and filing can help maintain healthy nails. 2. *Relaxation and pampering*: Massages and other treatments can be calming and rejuvenating. 3. *Aesthetic appeal*: Manicures and pedicures can enhance the appearance of your nails and feet. *Risks* 1. *Infection*: Improper sanitation and hygiene can lead to fungal or bacterial infections. 2. *Cuticle damage*: Aggressive cuticle removal or pushing can cause bleeding, pain, or infection. 3. *Nail damage*: Over-filing, cutting, or drilling can weaken or damage nails. *Best Manicure and Pedicure Options* 1. *Sanitary and hygienic salons*: Choose salons with good reputation, proper sanitation, and hygienic practices. 2. *Gel or dipping powder*: These options are less damaging than traditional acrylics. 3. *Natural nail care*: Opt for nail care that focuses on natural nail health, rather than excessive decoration.

I accidentally burned my middle finger with hot oil about a week ago. I've been taking cefpodoxime 200mg twice daily, using megaheal cream for the dressing, and taking diclo p tablets for the pain. But it still hurts when I'm changing the dressing. Is there anything else I can do to help it heal faster?
It takes time to heal no need to worry have patience if its bothering you much visit your doctor for further management
