My wife has molluscum contagiosum with around 30-40 bumps on her chin. The dermatologist first recommended a 2-week zinc tablet course, but it didn't help. Now they're suggesting surgical removal. We're hesitant about surgery is there any other treatment option that might work, or is surgery the best way to go? They mentioned removing each bump and applying medication, but we're worried about scarring or side effects.

View allI've been dealing with hair fall issues and my hair just isn't growing after a certain point. I'm pretty concerned and I've heard about these capsulesBecadexamin and Keraglo Evafor hair regrowth. Could you help me figure out which one would be better for me? I'm really curious if one is more effective than the other.
For hair re-growth, both Becadexamin and Keraglo Eva are viable options, but Keraglo Eva seems to have a more comprehensive formula, containing biotin, vitamin B12, and other nutrients that promote hair growth and strengthen hair follicles. However, it's essential to consult a doctor before starting any supplements, as they can recommend the best course of treatment for your specific hair concerns.

I've been suddenly getting a lot of pimples on my face and back, and it's really confusing me because I thought this phase was over. I started having this issue when I was about 21 or 25, but it settled down for around 23 years. Now, it's been flaring up again for the last 6 months, and I'm 29 now, so I wasn't expecting to deal with this. Do you have any advice on how to tackle this? Should I change my diet or try certain cosmetic products or take some precautions?
You are experiencing a recurrence of acne, which can be frustrating. To help manage your acne, you can consider using a topical treatment containing benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid. Brands like Differin gel or Proactiv can be effective. Additionally, maintaining a gentle skincare routine with a non-comedogenic cleanser and moisturizer can help. Avoiding harsh scrubs and picking at your skin is also important to prevent further irritation. In terms of diet, some studies suggest that dairy and high-glycemic foods may exacerbate acne for some individuals, so you may want to consider reducing your intake of these foods. Ensuring you stay hydrated and eat a balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and lean proteins can also support overall skin health. It's important to remember that everyone's skin is different, so what works for one person may not work for another. If your acne persists or worsens, it may be helpful to consult with a dermatologist for a personalized treatment plan.
