Question 1

I'm a bit concerned about my hair situation. I've been using the androanagen solution with sebowash shampoo as my dermatologist prescribed. But recently, they switched my shampoo to anaphase, and now I'm noticing more hair falling out, especially from the crown area. I'm worried it might be the new shampoo. What do you think I should do?

Accepted Answer

If hair fall is noticeable due to anaphase shampoo then stop using it and visit Dermatologist for alternate treatment.

Question 2

I'm noticing these red, itchy spots in the creases of both my elbows. It's making me worried. Do you know what could be causing this and what I can do to treat it?

Accepted Answer

It sounds like you may be experiencing eczema, also known as atopic dermatitis. To treat this, you can use a topical corticosteroid cream like Hydrocortisone 1% applied twice a day on the affected areas. Additionally, you can use a moisturizer like Cetaphil or Eucerin to keep the skin hydrated and prevent further irritation. If the symptoms persist, you may need to see a dermatologist for further evaluation and treatment.

Question 3

I'm a bit confused about how to use the acnewar gel that my doctor prescribed. Should I wash my face with water after applying the gel and then use the face wash my doctor recommended? Or do I just use the face wash directly after putting on the acnewar gel? I'm not really sure what the correct order is.

Accepted Answer

When using Acnewar gel and a prescribed face wash, follow this order:

1. *Apply Acnewar gel*: Directly apply a thin layer of Acnewar gel to the affected areas.
2. *Wait for 15-30 minutes*: Allow the gel to absorb and work on the acne.
3. *Wash your face with the prescribed face wash*: Use lukewarm water and a small amount of face wash to cleanse your face.
4. *Rinse thoroughly*: Rinse your face with lukewarm water to remove all residue.

Do not mix Acnewar gel with the face wash. Apply the gel first, wait, and then wash your face with the prescribed face wash.

How much water should I drink for clear skin?

Drinking atleast 3-4 litres of water will help flush out body and skin toxins.
