I've noticed that my scalp is kind of visible when I'm out in direct sunlight. I've been masturbating since I was 13 and I'm now 15. Could this be related, and is it something I should be concerned about? Id really appreciate your advice.

I'm struggling with hair loss and was prescribed TricoMax to take one tablet daily. The thing is, the dermatologist didn't tell me for how long I should continue this treatment. Ive moved quite far from Hindu Rao hospital, where I got this prescription, so a follow-up isnt really possible. Could you advise me on how long I should keep taking TricoMax? Any guidance would be really helpful.
TricoMax, a supplement containing biotin, vitamin B, and keratin, is recommended for a minimum of 3-6 months to assess its effectiveness for hair loss, and it's essential to consult a dermatologist for personalized guidance; consider consulting a new dermatologist in your current location for a follow-up and guidance on continuing or modifying the treatment.

Scabies is a skin infestation caused by the mite Sarcoptes scabiei. It is not usually a serious condition but can be very uncomfortable and contagious. Scabies can be effectively treated with topical medications such as Permethrin cream. It typically takes about 1-2 weeks for the symptoms to resolve after treatment. In some cases, a second treatment may be necessary. It is important to also wash all clothes, bedding, and towels in hot water to prevent re-infestation. Scabies does not typically result in death.
