Hi doctor,Today while combing my son's hair, I noticed small black spots on his scalp. They look dry and come out with strands of hair when combed strongly. He hasn't complained of any itching or pain. What could this be?

That could be Dermatophytic infection, wash his scalp regularly and avoid scratching, visit Dermatologist for appropriate management.

Question 3

Ive been dealing with redness in my buttock area, and its causing itching and pain, especially when sitting or rubbing. Ive been applying Candid-B cream for the past 20 days, but its not getting better. Can you suggest something else to help 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 5

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 6

Ive been using Tugain 10 on my scalp, and Ive noticed I sweat a lot from my hair, especially after exercising. Is this normal, or should I be concerned? Also, how long should I stay awake after applying it, and when can I wear a helmet afterward?

Accepted Answer

This is a common side effect of the medication. You can continue to use Tugain 10 despite sweating from the scalp. You should wait for at least 4 hours after applying Tugain 10 before going to bed to ensure the medication is fully absorbed into the scalp. As for using a helmet, it is recommended to wait for at least 2 hours after applying Tugain 10 before wearing a helmet to prevent interference with the absorption of the medication.
