Accepted Answer

1. Stop using Colgate: While it may have worked for others, using toothpaste on skin can be irritating and dry out the skin, making the situation worse.
2. Clean the area: Wash the affected area with mild soap and lukewarm water to remove any bacteria or debris.
3. Apply a topical antibiotic ointment: Use a topical antibiotic ointment, such as Neosporin or Bacitracin, to help prevent infection and promote healing.
4. Use a hydrocortisone cream: Apply a hydrocortisone cream to reduce inflammation and itching.
5. Avoid scratching: Scratching can lead to further irritation, infection, and scarring.

If the symptoms persist, worsen,seek medical attention

Question 2

Buttock area affected with redness that effects in itching and pain while sitting or rubbing. I have been applying candid-b cream from 20days but its not getting cure. Kindly advise to cure this

Accepted Answer

It sounds like you may be dealing with a fungal infection in the buttock area. Since Candid-B cream has not been effective, I recommend trying a combination antifungal and steroid cream such as Lotriderm cream. Apply a thin layer of Lotriderm cream to the affected area twice a day for 2 weeks. Additionally, keep the area clean and dry, wear loose-fitting clothing, and avoid tight underwear to help with the healing process.

Question 3

Sir i lost my some hair . can i regrow my hair with tha help of indulekha or another oil please tell me .

Accepted Answer

While using oils like Indulekha can help nourish the scalp and hair, it may not be sufficient to regrow lost hair. For hair regrowth, you may consider using minoxidil solution, which is available under brand names like Rogaine. You can apply 1 ml of minoxidil solution twice daily on the scalp to promote hair regrowth. Additionally, it is important to maintain a healthy diet, manage stress, and avoid harsh hair treatments to support hair regrowth.

Question 4

I've been dealing with warts on my beard area for the past 3 years. I tried homeopathy but didnt see any results. I also went for laser treatment, but new warts keep appearing about 10 days after. Can you suggest a more permanent solution for getting...

Accepted Answer

Warts can be stubborn to treat, but there are effective options available. One common treatment for warts is Salicylic acid, which is available in the form of Mediplast pads. You can apply these pads directly on the warts daily. Another effective option is Cryotherapy, which involves freezing the warts off with liquid nitrogen. Your doctor can use Veregen cream, which contains green tea extract, to treat the warts. Additionally, Imiquimod cream can also be used to boost the immune response against the warts. It's important to follow the prescribed dosage and application instructions for these treatments.

Question 5

My son's nails havent been growing at all for the last 5 years, not on his hands or feet. What could be causing this, and what kind of treatment can help his nails start growing again?

Accepted Answer

Nail growth arrest for 5 years may indicate an underlying condition, such as hypothyroidism, anemia, nutritional deficiencies (biotin, vitamin B12, or iron), skin conditions (psoriasis, eczema), or genetic disorders (nail-patella syndrome); potential complications include increased risk of fungal or bacterial infections, nail bed inflammation, or secondary infections; consult a pediatrician or dermatologist for a thorough evaluation
