I've woken up the past two mornings with these red, itchy bumps on the right side of my neck and right hand, kind of like insect bites. They're nowhere else on my body. I stopped using a fan while sleeping recently. Could these be mosquito bites or something else? What should I use to treat them?

I've recently gotten over jaundice, but now I'm dealing with some pretty bad hair loss, especially around the front. Is it normal to lose hair like this after having jaundice, and is there a chance my hair might grow back? What steps can I take to prevent or manage this hair fall?

To help with hair regrowth and prevent further hair fall, you can consider taking biotin supplements to support hair growth. Additionally, using minoxidil solution on the affected areas can also help promote hair regrowth. It is important to maintain a balanced diet rich in vitamins and minerals, and to avoid excessive heat styling or chemical treatments on your hair. You may also consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and treatment options.
