How do I treat hair thinning, loss, and dandruff at 16?

I am 16 year old and I am suffering from hair thinning hair loss and dandruff what do I do??

1 Answer

Answered on 6th June '24

At your age, losing hair or having thinning hair could occur because of stress, poor nutrition, hormonal changes, or using strong hair products. For instance, a dry scalp or a fungus can cause dandruff. To reduce stress levels, eat a well-balanced diet, use mild hair care products, and try anti-dandruff shampoos. Visit a dermatologist for more personalized recommendations.

Hello doc, My problem is that I have several dark spots and pimples on my face. I had tried several topical medication it didn't work out and my skin colour got blackened.Can I have a solution for this, In quick period of time.

Male | 20

I advise you to follow a proper skincare routine which includes washing your face twice a day with gentle cleanser and using a moisturizer that suits your skin type. Also, while going out wear a sunscreen with at least SPF of 30. Also, exfoliating 1-2 times a week can help. And avoid touching or squeezing your pimples as this can make your problem worse. For more help and guidance regarding your dark spots, I recommend visiting a dermatologist. I hope this proved helpful.

My mother had a small lump on her hand so can she take moxiforce cv 625 this medicine

Female | 58

Any lump or soft tissue can be due to many reasons like injury, inflammation, or even tumors. Moxiforce CV 625 is a medicine prescribed to treat infections, but without determining the exact cause of the lump, it is not advisable to use it. It is more preferable to have a doctor to check the lump and decide which is the best treatment.

Ring worm infection all over the body.

Male | 15

Ringworm isn't from worms, it's a funky fungus skin infection. Scatte­red red, scaly, itchy patches appe­ar on your body. See a dermatologist for antifungal cream or pill tre­atment. Keep skin cle­an, and dry to prevent spreading. Don't share­ personal items - that's how it travels.

I have black neck from a very long time I really want a cure for it

Male | 16

Acanthosis Nigricans is what you are suffering from, a skin condition that causes your neck to darken compared to the rest of your body. This may occur if you are obese or have diabetes. It is important to work on reducing your weight and controlling your blood sugar levels. A balanced diet, regular exercise, and maintaining the cleanliness of your skin can gradually improve this problem.

My boyfriend has an infected wound in his calf which started of as a small itchy spot that later became a red spot and later an infected wound that's made his the surrounding area swollen right down to his ankles. The glands in his groin are now painful too. Please advise what type of antibiotic would be suitable for this?

Male | 41

Your boyfriend may have a severe skin infection that’s spreading. The redness, swelling, and pain—coupled with swollen glands in the groin—indicate that it might be a bacterial infection. To cure this, he may require a course of antibiotics such as penicillin or cephalosporin which can help to fight off the infection. It is important to seek medical attention as soon as possible to avoid further complications.

Acne and pimple. Black spot

Male | 30

Acne and pimple­s are skin problems many people­ deal with. Sometimes, afte­r acne clears up, dark spots remain. The­se spots are called post-inflammatory hype­rpigmentation. They happen whe­n your skin produces too much melanin due to inflammation. To he­lp reduce these­ spots, keep your skin clean and avoid picking or sque­ezing pimples. Using products with retinoids, vitamin C, or hydroquinone­ may gradually lighten the spots. Wear sunscre­en to prevent the­ spots from darkening further.

I am 33 years old .I am suffering from PCOD & now I am facing hair fall problem in badly .can you help me to grow new hair

Female | 33

PCOD can trigger the hormonal imbalance which in turn causes hair loss. Some signs are irregular menstruation and acne. To promote new hair growth, you can try consuming a balanced diet full of fruits and vegetables, controlling stress, and keeping a normal weight. You may talk to your doctor about possible therapies for hair growth as well.
