Try cold compresses, turmeric, and facial massages for thick lips. If no change, consult a dermatologist. Surgery is a last resort.

I've been dealing with a fungal infection between my last two toes on both feet. I used to use Lulifin Lotion from Ranbaxy, and it worked to keep it under control. But lately, I can't find it anywhere. Could you recommend another option? Also, I have to use a dusting powder like Tzyo or Candid every day because the space between my toes is narrow. Is there a permanent solution you could suggest?

Probable diagnosis is fungal infection , candid cream for local application, once daily for 2 weeks is advised, also tab levocetrizine 10 mg at bedtime for 7 days is advised, if any allergic reactions dermat opinion is advised.

I've been using Keraglo Eva tablets for about three months now because I'm dealing with hair fall. I'm wondering how much longer I can keep taking them safely. Is it okay to use them regularly as a normal part of my hair care routine?
