The use of rosemary water for hair is quite beneficial. Rosemary shows the potential for increasing hair growth and stopping hair loss with its properties. It is a common method used to reduce dandruff and improve scalp health. Nevertheless, in case of any skin reaction or allergies, avoid it. Before applying it all over your scalp, it is crucial to try out a small area first.

My left leg is wounded by itching and have swelling.

Male | 56

This appears to be an allergic reaction or bug bite on your lower left limb making it itch and swell. When the body’s immune system responds to something it is sensitive to, these are the kinds of responses that occur. To relieve the itching and swelling, try applying a cold pack and taking an antihistamine. If this doesn’t help, you should see a dermatologist for further diagnosis and treatment.

Pimple problem and hair fall solution

Female | 23

Pimples develop when oil and dead skin cells obstruct hair follicles. Stress, hormonal changes, and insufficient face washing contribute. To address pimples, wash your face twice daily, refrain from picking them, and use gentle products. For hair loss, consume a balanced diet, manage stress, and use mild shampoos. Consulting a dermatologist may also prove beneficial if concerns persist.

ear lump from piercing in helix bleeding and swelling and irritation

Female | 15

There’s a lump in your ear above where the earrings go. If it’s swollen, red, or bleeds, it might be an infected piercing. Infections happen when bacteria enter through broken skin. To help it heal faster clean it with saline solution, don’t touch it with unclean hands, and use warm compresses several times a day. If this doesn’t work you should see a dermatologist.

Hi doc..i have this sour and white taste toungue for few months.scrap it off the next day it comes back..is it due to smoking and alcohol user..i dont have this problem before..ols help

Male | 52

You have a white sour taste in your mouth that won't go away even after scraping it off. According to my experience, this might be caused by smoking or alcohol which irritates the mouth hence this recurring problem. To solve this problem, reduce smoking and taking alcohol. Ensure that your teeth are always clean and don’t forget to scrape your tongue. If this doesn't work out for you then I would advise you to visit a dentist who will further guide you on what to do.

Can you suggest to me the best hair transplant technique? And after my hair transplant surgery will I have to take off from my work for a few days??

Male | 32

The choice of the best hair transplant technique depends on various factors, including your hair loss pattern, donor hair availability, and your preferences. Two common methods are Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT) and Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE). FUT involves removing a strip of the scalp for grafts, leaving a linear scar, while FUE involves individually extracting follicles, leaving minimal scarring. Regarding recovery, it's advisable to take a few days off work after the surgery. The initial recovery period typically involves some swelling, redness, and scabbing around the transplant area.

I am an 18 year old male who has had a red mark, presumably from masturbation on my penis for the last couple of years. It hasn’t changed but I’ve persisted masturbation so maybe that’s why. The color of my skin there is dark so the mark looks reddish-pink and the skin is a bit scaly and dry but it does not hurt or bleed. I don’t know if it’s friction burn or something else.

Male | 18

It seems that what you are going through may likely be hyperpigmentation from inflammation. This could be caused by constant rubbing during the time you are masturbating which can result in rough, scaly skin that will be red or pink in color. Keeping the area clean, protected, and well moisturized is important. Using a mild, scentless moisturizer is a great way to start. Whether the symptoms persist or get more severe, it's worth making an appointment with a dermatologist so they can give you proper advice.

I have gone through hair transplant surgery 4.5 months ago. I am suffering from Androgenetic Alopecia. As per the doctor, I am taking minoxidil and finastride on daily basis. However, my hair sheds while I apply minoxidil (10-15 hairs shed) and while I wash my head. Please suggest whether this is normal or should I consider any other treatment?

Hair fall is natural. As the lifecycle of hair has different stages.

Telogen and exogen are shedding phases of hair cycle where we lose hair. 15 to 20% hair are shed in these phases, therefore it's natural.
But when you lose more hair than routine, then its a matter of concern. Upto 30 to 40 hair per day is normal. Whatever you lose will grow back according to your hair cycle.
If you are losing thin hair very frequently then it's alarming as well.
After starting minoxidil hair fall increases. But that is normal and you will get those hair back because you are not losing them from the root.

Keep using minoxidil and finasteride it will help you.

You can refer this page to find doctors - Dermatologists in India, or you can consult me as well anytime you feel that the state of your hair is seeing no improvement.
