I've noticed some hair loss behind my ears and it's been really bothering me. I'm wondering, is it even possible for that hair to grow back? Also, if there are any effective treatments or medications you'd recommend for this, I'd love to hear about them.

I've been dealing with this jock rash and tried putting vinegar on it, but now my skin's peeling. Should I be worried about this reaction? Is there something else I should do to make it better?

I've been taking isotretinoin at 20 mg and it's really drying out my lips. I've tried a few lip balms, but nothing seems to help. Could you recommend a lip balm that might work better? I'm getting a bit worried about how chapped they're getting.

Dry lips is the most common side effect of Isotretinoin,use butter based lipbalms as they are long lasting and stay hydrated
