My ward has been having some skin rashes and itchiness all over his body for the past 15 days, and its really starting to worry me. The rash is consistently noticeable, and he feels a bit uncomfortable because of it. Can you provide some insight into what might be causing this and what steps we should take?

For your ward's persistent skin rashes and itchiness lasting 15 days, it's essential to consult a dermatologist to determine the underlying cause, which could be allergic reactions, eczema, dermatitis, or other conditions; in the meantime, encourage your ward to avoid scratching, apply cool compresses, and use over-the-counter anti-itch creams or oral antihistamines to alleviate discomfort.

I've just started taking Morr F 5 for my ADA, and my hair fall's actually gotten worse since day one. Is this normal? Why is it happening, and when can I expect it to calm down and see some hair regrowth?

Hairfall will contine for a 3 months and regrowth will start after 3-6 month of use.

How exactly should I use this Salactin paint for my warts? Do I need to soak them in water first, or should I just apply it directly on them? I'm a bit unsure about the proper way.
