Lemon is usually used in hair oils and shampoos. But directly applying it may irritate the scalp skin. Do a patch test before applying it.

I'm noticing small pimples around the base of my penis, near where my pubic hair is. It's becoming quite painful and I recently had unprotected sex, so I'm starting to worry. It feels like boils are forming. What could be causing this?

It sounds like you may be experiencing a genital infection, possibly due to a sexually transmitted infection (STI) or a bacterial infection. I recommend you to use an antibiotic ointment like Neosporin and take an oral antibiotic like Azithromycin 500mg once a day for 3 days. It's important to also practice safe sex and get tested for STIs to prevent future infections.

I'm really worried about the side effects of using keraboost. If I decide to stop taking it, will it make my hair fall out even more? I'm looking for some advice on what to expect.

Keraboost is a hair growth supplement that contains biotin, zinc, and other vitamins and minerals. Some common side effects of Keraboost may include gastrointestinal upset, such as nausea or diarrhea. In rare cases, allergic reactions like rash or itching may occur. If you stop consuming Keraboost, it is unlikely to directly cause an increase in hair fall. However, if Keraboost was helping to improve the health of your hair and you stop taking it, you may notice a decrease in hair quality over time. It's important to maintain a balanced diet and good hair care routine even if you stop taking the supplement.
