Should I Wait Before Taking Doxycycline Again?

Hello! I'd like to consult on a medication called Doxycycline I took 2 doses wrongly by accident (2 pills 2 times a day instead of 1 pill 2 times a day) Should I wait 24 hours and take the next dose in the morning? or should I take my next dose now? also, could I check the effectiveness of doxycycline? (I have taken doxycycline before and I'm concerned it might not be effective) Thank you!

It's important to use medicines the right way if you want them to work well. Too much doxycycline might give you a stomach ache, make you feel sick, or throw up. If you have taken 2 doses at once, just skip that particular time and take your next dose when it is due. Even after this drug may still be effective but not in the correct manner as before; so always consult with your doctor if doubtful about its efficacy.

I have a great grown beard . And I don't use any grooming products on my beard so far . Just using a water to clean it . Couple week before when I trimmed my beard I had noticed patchy area on my left side of chin . And again today I have noticed it's spreading . Can you pls help me what ointment or suppliment I should use to get back my hair back

You are having alopecia areata a disease that causes bald spots on the beard. The situation is not life-threatening but it can be quite annoying. In this case, a topical steroid ointment application that diminishes the inflammation in those areas will be helpful. Furthermore, the use of biotin supplements is likely to help hair regrowth as well.

I have to much hair fall… then some one recommended To use zincovit for it but I want to know some information about that is that ok for a teen girl???

Female | 22

Hair loss caused by nerves due to teenage girls’ stress, food deficiency, or changes in hormones could be the reasons besides others. Zincovit is a multivitamin that contains zinc, a mineral that is vital for hair health. It can be used by girls who have this problem. Nevertheless, in addition to a healthy diet and good stress management, better hair health is guaranteed.

Mujhe Parso raat ko mere bete ne boll Mardi Kal mere face pe Neel padh gya or sojish agyi eyes ke Neeche mujhe 14 tareek ki kahi jana hai . Please koi medicine esi btao jis se mera neel chla jaye 2 din main

Your son may have accidentally hit you in the face since there is a bruise and some swelling under your eyes. Normally such injuries heal over time so don’t worry too much. If it’s really bad then apply something cold to help with the inflammation as well as taking some over the counter painkillers if needed. If things do not improve within 48 hours please seek medical advice immediately.

Hello Doctor, Myself Anjali. I am 25.5 yrs old. I am having severe itching in my private part whenever i go outside in sun.

Female | Anjali

It seems you are facing a heat rash which is a common condition. Your skin gets too hot due to the sun and it can make your skin red, itchy, and throbbing. After a time, you should avoid wearing clothes that are too tight. Make sure to wear cool, loose-fitting clothes. Moreover, always keep below clean and dry when there is a chance of heat rash. Calamine lotion can also be a good option to use to relieve the burning skin. Drinking enough water is important.

It is advisable to see a dermatologist for a rash on your penis. They focus on diagnosing and treating skin diseases. I suggest going to a doctor to find out the cause of a rash and receive effective treatment.

I'm 22 years old male. I have some fungal infections in my hip and my leg in almost 18+ months. I have some skin care creams but not cure

Male | 22

A persistent fungal infection is quite often the cause of discomfort, it may be accompanied by itching, redness and flaking of the skin. Among the very common causes are exposure to moisture, hot conditions, and touching surfaces that are infected with fungus. Sometimes, it is not enough to merely find an over-the-counter cream that gives you temporary relief; it can well be improved, but sometimes a total solution is still impossible. My choice is the use of complex treatments that may be also over the counter, for example, antifungal drugs given on doctor’s recommendation along with making sure cleanliness and the affected areas are kept dry. A visit to the doctor often is the time for specific ways of dealing with the situation and also for quicker management of the condition. You are not alone in it. If you are still hesitating, remember that professional help can actually solve your problems very brilliantly.

I am a 18 year old male and im concuabout having hsv 1 and hsv 2, i was a little worried about what they look like because i saw something that looked unusual in both places.

It's important to get examined by a healthcare professional, like a dermatologist or a urologist, to diagnose any concerns regarding HSV-1 or HSV-2 accurately. Avoid self-diagnosis based on appearance, as it can be misleading. Early detection and proper medical guidance are crucial for managing any potential infections.
