My wife has this scar on her faceit's right above her left eyebrow. Sometimes she experiences this sharp pain like a needle prick, and there's even a small wound under the eyebrow. We were told by a doctor to use Tbact Ointment cream to help with the scar, but we're curious if there's any other treatment out there that could reduce the scar besides opting for plastic surgery.

I'm really worried because I've been losing a lot of hair whenever I take a head bath or even when I'm just combing it. I recently had a case of typhoid fever, and now my hair feels really soft and seems to break easily. Could this be related to the fever, and what can I do to help my hair recover?

I've got these dark spots and areas of darker skin on my bum, plus some stretch marks, and while I'm usually confident about my body, these things make me feel a bit uncomfortable. Could you help me figure out a solution?

The dark spots and dark skin around them may be due to hyperpigmentation. You can use a cream containing hydroquinone and tretinoin to lighten the dark spots. Apply it once at night for a few weeks. For the stretch marks, you can use a cream containing retinoids and hyaluronic acid to improve their appearance. Remember to use sunscreen during the day to protect your skin."
