  1. Understanding Vitiligo
    Vitiligo is a non-contagious skin condition characterized by loss of skin pigment. It does not affect overall health or physical capabilities.

  2. Safety in Relationships
    It is medically safe to marry someone with vitiligo. The condition poses no health risk to partners and does not impact the ability to maintain a healthy relationship.

  3. Genetic Considerations
    While vitiligo can have a genetic component, it does not guarantee that children will inherit the condition. Discuss any concerns with a healthcare provider for personalized advice.

  4. Reassurance
    Vitiligo should not be a barrier to marriage. Focus on mutual understanding and support in the relationship.

I'm having trouble finding Dipsalic F ointment at medical stores since they said it's not being made anymore. I've been using it for an allergic reaction, and nothing else I've tried is as effective. Can you suggest the best substitute for this ointment? I'm really concerned about finding something that works as well.

Question

I'm dealing with a boil where I've managed to remove the pus, but the core hasn't come out yet. While the pain has gone down, I'm still a bit worried because I've dealt with recurring boils in the past. Right now, I'm dressing it two to three times a day and using Betadine ointment for it. I'm really careful about hygiene when cleaning the boils, but I'm not sure if Betadine is actually good for them. Could you suggest some medicine to help cure the boil and prevent them from coming back?

Question

I've been using arnica oil for about a month and a half, but I haven't seen any noticeable hair growth. Can you tell me how long it usually takes for the oil to show its effects? I'm getting a bit concerned if it's working or not.
