Is there any real medical evidence that using onion juice can help with hair growth? If so, how should I apply it and in what form? I've been losing hair, particularly from the crown and have a receding hairline. I tried minoxidil and multivitamins, but they haven't really worked. What else can I do?

There is some evidence to suggest that onion juice may help enhance hair growth due to its sulfur content which may improve blood circulation to the hair follicles. You can apply onion juice directly to your scalp, leave it on for about 30 minutes, and then wash it off with a mild shampoo. You can do this 1-2 times a week. However, please note that individual results may vary and it may take some time to see any noticeable effects. You can also consider using a hair growth shampoo containing minoxidil.

View allI'm really worried because I've had 20 injections of dexamethasone, gentamycin, and deriphyllin in my buttocks over 5 days. Didn't feel any pain during the injections, but now, two days later, there's pain and these lumps have formed on both sides. Been using thromophob cream and taking Zerodol SP for 10 days, but the lumps and pain aren't going away. What should I do?

Can you give me any advice on a cream or natural remedy to help fade a skin burn mark on my face? I bleached my skin recently and ended up with a burn. It's gotten a bit better, but I still have some noticeable scars and marks. I'd really appreciate any suggestions to help get rid of these.
To help reduce the appearance of skin burn marks on your face, you can consider using a cream containing silicone gel. One example is Mederma Advanced Scar Gel, which can be applied to the affected area twice a day. Additionally, you may also benefit from using a cream containing vitamin E, such as Strataderm, to help improve the texture of the scarred skin. Remember to apply these creams as directed by the manufacturer for best results.

I've had a mole on my right cheek for about 15 years now. Can it be removed, and would I need plastic surgery or is there a simpler treatment that can get rid of it completely?
Yes, the mole on your cheek can likely be removed, and it doesn't necessarily require plastic surgery. Several simpler methods are available, and a dermatologist can determine the best option for you
