What fruit is good for eczema?

Doctor 1

Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors

Fruits with flavonoids such as Apples, Broccoli, Cherries, Blueberries, Spinach, Kale can be taken as they help in fighting inflammation. But many triggers might bring on eczema-related symptoms including what we eat and each person has different allergens. There's no one diet plan that suits all. It is better to have diet rich in fruits, vegetables and healthy fats according to your allergies.

So I've been on rifampicin for about two weeks to treat my tuberculosis, and I've noticed that my skin is becoming darker and kind of shiny. Is this something normal? Should I be worried about this change in my skin?

Skin getting dark and shiny is not a normal side effect. This could be a sign of a serious condition called drug-induced liver injury. I recommend stopping rifampicin immediately and consulting your healthcare provider. An alternative medication regimen may be necessary.

I'm really worried about my thin hair and I'm looking to increase its volume. I've heard about Follihair tablets and I'm wondering if it's safe to take them without a prescription. Also, how long would it take to see any effects if I start taking them? Could you please advise me on this?

I'm really stressed about the redness on my cheeks. I've tried several medications like isotretinoin 0.05, glocin gel, Vicco turmeric skin cream, benzoyl peroxide gel, clindamycin phosphate gel, and even diprovate, but nothing seems to work. I've consulted with a couple of doctors, but the redness just won't go away. Its really affecting my confidence, and to make it worse, my skin is super sensitive. Could you guide me on which of these might be the best option for me, or suggest something else that might help?

Given your sensitive skin, I recommend trying a gentle and soothing gel like "Avene Antirougeurs Calm Soothing Repair Mask". Apply a thin layer of this gel on your cheeks after cleansing your face, and leave it on for the recommended duration. This gel is specifically formulated to reduce redness and calm sensitive skin. Additionally, you can consider using a mild cleanser and moisturizer suitable for sensitive skin to help manage the redness. Remember to patch test any new product before applying it to your entire face to ensure compatibility with your skin.
