Question

I've noticed several soft, movable lumps on my hands and legs that my doctor said are lipomas. I'm really not keen on surgery are there any other ways to shrink or remove them naturally? What options might work for something like this?

Lipomas are benign fatty growths that usually don't require treatment. While surgery is a common treatment option, there are no known natural methods to shrink or remove them. If you are concerned about the appearance or discomfort of your lipomas, a dermatologist or surgeon can discuss other options, such as liposuction, which may be less invasive than surgical removal

Question

I'm struggling with dandruff all year round, no matter the weather. I've tried using lemon juice, hair oils, anti-dandruff shampoos, even henna, but nothing seems to work. It's super itchy all the time, and washing my hair every other day hasn't helped at all. I generally have dry skin, but this dandruff issue has really worsened in the past year. Could you please give me some advice on what I might try next?
