Tetanus disease comes with some toxic dirty cuts that make swallowing very hard as well as stiffness of muscles generally. Such people should ensure the scratch is germs-free by washing it with water and soap and then applying any antiseptic. One should also note that if you have not had any tetanus vaccination within the last ten years, make sure it is done as soon as possible to prevent further infections.

Doctor, my hair falls a lot and breaks. Can you tell me the solution so that my hair starts growing and becomes silky?

Female | 15

This can happen from things such as stress, poor diet, or using harsh hair products. To grow your hair and make it silky again, try eating a well-rounded diet full of fruits and vegetables along with drinking plenty of water. Also, use gentle sulfate-free shampoos, conditioners, and other styling products on your locks.

My baby is 1.8yr old girl...she got fine hairs at her private part and underarms and little facial hair also...it's from birth....her dad also got much hairy skin..is it normal about her

Female | 1

It’s normal for your 1.8-year-old daughter to have fine hair in those areas. It could be because her dad is hairy – sometimes it runs in the family. These hairs are not a problem and do not require any treatment. As she gets older these hairs may become thicker, but that is fine too.

pigmentation problem on my face

Female | 31

This is usually when you have dark or light patches on your skin. Some common factors are sunburn, hormonal changes, and genetics. Improving pigmentation can be achieved by sunscreen, limiting sun exposure, and using skincare products with ingredients like vitamin C or retinol to even out your skin tone.

I am 19 yr olg I am effected to fungal acne on my face from past 2 months ,I also followed a treatment but it's not working instead of reducing its evan making more worse , I am so insecure abt my skin I can't even explain, I feel so disappointed evan to go to my college..... so can please suggest me a skin care which will help to clear completely and as soon as possible

Female | 19

Fungal acne may appear as very small pimples on your skin, especially the face area. It is by the yeast that lives on your skin. For it to get cleared off, use a non-irritating wash with salicylic acid, unhitch thick creams, and introduce antifungal substances such as tea tree oil. I want you to appreciate the process; it may require some time before you see a difference.

I am terrified of taking medication because I fear Steven Johnson syndrome

Female | 27

You are afraid of Stevens-Johnson Syndrome from drugs. It is a rare but serious skin reaction. Symptoms can be flu-like symptoms, a rash, and blisters on the skin. Medicines or infections can cause it. Before starting any new medicine, speak with your doctor if this is something that concerns you. They will be able to help you choose what might work best for you and watch out for signs of trouble.

I am 20 years old and over 6 years the right side of where hair do grow in my private part do breath ones i breath, and it do swell up, with no pain.

Male | 20

You may have a hernia. This occurs when internals are pushed through a weak part in a muscle. Although there is no pain now, it should be examined by a doctor. They may advise treatment such as an operation to repair the damage and avoid further problems.

I am 27 year old living in ranchi kanke road , having serious problem of dandruff hairfall and my hair color is changing into white even some part of beard as well. Kindly help me with the treatment.

Male | 27

Dandruff in the scalp is due to excess sebum (natural oil) production along with increased activity of a fungus called Malassezia in the scalp. Antifungal shampoos containing Ketoconazole, Ciclopirox, selenium sulphide can help treat the dandruff. If it is severe, oral antifungals are also prescribed for a short duration. Salicylic acid, coal tar shampoos are also prescribed in case of excess flakiness of scalp. Hair fall may be due to dandruff, nutritional deficiencies, stress or due to genetic factors. It is recommended to visit a dermatologist who can diagnose the cause of hairfall and may suggest treatment accordingly. Trichoscopy of the scalp may help in understanding the nature of the scalp and condition. Nutritional supplements, Capixyl containing serum, Minoxidil solution, oral supplements containing vitamin and minerals are prescribed by the dermatologist to treat the hair loss. Change in hair colour in beard and scalp may be due to nutritional deficiencies or strong hair colours or genetic causes. Dermatologist’s help may be needed to treat the same. Calcium pantothenate containing supplements may help slow down the greying and sometimes restore the colour of hair.
