Question 1

I've been dealing with pretty bad hair loss for a while now. A couple of years back, I went to a dermatologist who suggested using Dr. Reddys Mintop 5 topical solution together with Finax 1 mg tablets for about two months, which worked really well initially. My hair loss went down, and I even saw some regrowth. But then from June 2014 until January 2017, I continued using Mintop. After that, I switched to ayurvedic and homeopathic remedies for about 45 months. Unfortunately, that seemed to make everything worse, as my hair started falling out again in clumps. I'm really worried and not sure what steps to take now. Could you give me some advice?

Question 2

I've been dealing with really itchy rashes and red patches for the last three days and its getting pretty frustrating. I'm using Zovirax tablets and Ocuvir cream, but I'm not sure if they're really helping. Should I be doing anything else, or could this be something more serious?

Question 3

I've got multiple lipomas in my hands and legs and need surgery to remove them. Did some research and feel ready, but a surgeon at a big hospital quoted 2.5k per lipoma. Wondering if there are better options out there maybe a dermatologist could do it for less? What's the usual cost for this?

Accepted Answer

Newer treatments for lipomas include High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) and injection lipolysis (dissolving injections), offering non-surgical alternatives to traditional surgical removal or liposuction. Cryotherapy is also an emerging treatment using extreme cold to destroy fat cells in the lipoma
