Will washing cause scalp scarring or scabbing?

Will washing his hair scar his scalp or will his scalp scab and heal back to normal?

1 Answer

Answered on 23rd July '24

Regularly washing hair won't harm your scalp or cause­ scabs, unless you scrub roughly or use very hot wate­r. If scalp feels sore, turns re­d, or develops scabs, try gentle­r shampoo and lukewarm water instead. Don't scratch the­ scalp. Allow it to heal naturally. However, if the­ issue persists, consult a dermatologist for profe­ssional advice.

Tangan bengkak selepas vaksin COVID dah CT scan Masih bengkak

Female | 21

Pembengkakan pada tangan selepas pengambilan vaksin COVID-19 boleh terjadi akibat reaksi normal sistem imun. Ini biasanya termasuk kesakitan, kemerahan, atau bengkak di kawasan suntikan. Jika simptom berlanjutan walaupun selepas CT scan, penting untuk memastikan tiada jangkitan atau komplikasi lain. Anda boleh meredakan bengkak dengan kompres sejuk dan mengangkat tangan yang terjejas. Namun, jika keadaan tidak bertambah baik atau paling teruk, adalah bijak untuk berjumpa doktor bagi mendapatkan penilaian lanjut. Kesihatan anda adalah keutamaan, dan mendapatkan nasihat profesional adalah langkah terbaik.

Several reasons for female baldness at the age of 18 include hormonal imbalances, stress factors in one’s life, taking certain medicines and underlying medical conditions. A visit to a hair loss dermatologist will help discover the underlying causes of this condition and recommend suitable treatments. Early intervention frequently results in good outcomes.

Hi doc, I have an added areola around my nipples it's not dark in color it's just a light brownish thing with some little hairs that are growing, I went on my periods fully, but they came early because of the emergency pill I used. I then took two pregnancy tests after seeing the change in my breasts and they were all negative I'm curious now what could cause the change

Female | 24

The emergency pill can cause hormonal changes, and this might result in breast changes such as an extra areola that is light brown with some hairs. Even if the pregnancy tests are negative, there could still be hormonal fluctuations leading to variations in breasts. Most likely, it is nothing serious and will return to normal soon. Watch out for it but if you are worried about anything then feel free to ask a doctor for advice.

My mother and brother have chicken pox. It's been 4 days and taking medicine. I have had this disease before. Is there any possibility of more coming as I am taking care of them? My father is on medication after his stroke. So, can he take preventive medicine? Is there any use in consuming it for so many days? Since we are all in one house, there is a common toilet. Cleaned with Dettol after each use. Is there a problem with that?

Female | 45

It's so cool that you worry about your family's health. As you have already had chicken pox, you are in all probabilities immune to it. Your dad who is in the process of stroke recovery should not use any preventive medicines on his own without consulting with the doctor. It is a good thing to wash the toilet with Dettol to reduce the possibility of the germs spreading. Pure, practicing the supreme rudiments and caring for one another will be enough to get by!
