Can I use Anaboom shampoo to help with my dandruff? I'm really frustrated with my hair fall. Every time I wash my hair, it seems like I've got even more hair falling out. Is there anything I can do to control both the dandruff and hair fall?

I recommend using Nizoral shampoo for dandruff control. It contains ketoconazole which is effective against dandruff. Use it twice a week for 8 weeks. Additionally, you can use Minoxidil solution 5% for hair fall. Apply 1ml twice daily on the scalp.

I've noticed that I've developed quite a few til on my face, and they seem to be increasing. I'm also seeing them appear on my neck and hands. What can I do to stop them from spreading and how do I get rid of them?

Excessive oil production on your face is often due to overactive sebaceous glands. While you cant completely stop oil production (and you shouldnt, as some oil is necessary for healthy skin), you can manage it effectively with the following steps: Cleanse properly, hydrate your skin, control shine during the day by carrying tissues to absorb the excess oil without disturbing makeup, adjust your diet, avoid heavy makeup, exfoliate weekly , use specialised treatments, manage stress.

I'm really struggling with this itching problem on my skin that I've had for many years. I've been using a soap named Tetmosol, and it helps until the evening, but then the itching comes back. I'm curious if there's anything else I could try or if there's something more to it? It's been quite frustrating dealing with this every day.

It sounds like you may be experiencing a skin condition that requires ongoing management. In addition to using Tetmosol soap, you can also try using a topical corticosteroid cream like Betnovate (Betamethasone) twice a day on the affected areas. Make sure to apply a thin layer and gently rub it in. If the itching persists, you can also take an oral antihistamine like Cetirizine 10mg once daily in the evening to help with the itching. Remember to continue using these medications as directed by a healthcare professional.
