Accepted Answer

Given the persistent hardness and potential remaining pus near the furuncle (boil) site, consider consulting a dermatologist for further evaluation and guidance; in the meantime, continue warm compresses (3-4 times a day) to promote drainage, keep the area clean with mild soap and water, and avoid squeezing or picking at the site to prevent infection spread.

Question 3

How safe is finax for hair loss and what are the chances of regrowth ? Can you provide me the prescription for it?

Accepted Answer

Finax is a popular medication for hair loss, but its safety and effectiveness depend on various factors.

What is Finax?

Finax is a brand name for Finasteride, a 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor. It's primarily used to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) but is also effective in promoting hair growth and slowing down hair loss.

Safety Profile

Finasteride is generally considered safe when used as directed. However, like any medication, it can cause side effects, such as:

1. Sexual dysfunction: Decreased libido, erectile dysfunction, and ejaculation disorders.
2. Breast tenderness or enlargement: Rare but possible.
3. Mood changes: Depression, anxiety, or mood swings.

Efficacy for Hair Regrowth

Finasteride has been shown to be effective in promoting hair growth and slowing down hair loss in men with androgenetic alopecia (male pattern baldness). Studies have demonstrated:

1. Hair growth: Finasteride can increase hair growth by 10-15% over a 2-year period.
2. Hair loss reduction: Finasteride can reduce hair loss by 30-40% over a 2-year period.

Prescription and Dosage

Finax is a prescription medication, and you should consult a doctor before starting treatment. The typical dosage for hair loss is:

1. Finasteride 1mg: Take one tablet orally once a day.

Question 4

Accepted Answer

Based on your IgE levels being more than 2000 and your history of eczema, it indicates a strong allergic response in your body. To help manage your symptoms, you can take antihistamines like Cetirizine 10mg once daily. In addition, for your eczema, you can use a topical corticosteroid like Hydrocortisone cream twice daily on the affected areas
