Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors

Hair oil can promote circulation and may improve the hair density and frizziness and to an extent improve the hair growth but knowing the root cause of hair fall and treating it makes the difference

I'm really struggling with my skin during the winter months. It turns really dark and dry, and oddly enough, it actually gets even darker when I use moisturizers. To top it off, I start breaking out with pimples too. It's so frustrating, because my skin is completely fine in the summersmooth, bright, and pimple-free. I'm based in Delhi, if that makes any difference. Could you help me figure out what's going on and what I can do about it?

Im 23 and I've noticed I have white hair and some bald patches. I'm really hoping to regrow hair in these bald areas and also turn my white hair back to black.

Indulekha hair oil may help promote hair growth and reduce dandruff, but its effectiveness in regrowing hair on balding areas and reversing white hair to black is largely anecdotal and not scientifically proven; for noticeable results

I've got these white patches on my knees and elbows, and even after three months of medical treatment, they seem to be spreading. I'm using Tab.vitibex twice a day and applying melgain lotion twice daily too. My diet includes sour and spicy foods. I'm really worried and not sure what to do next. Could it be something I'm missing, or should I be adjusting my treatment or diet somehow? Any advice would be really appreciated!

It seems like you're being treated for vitiligo, a condition causing white patches. Despite 3 months of treatment, the patches are increasing. Concerns with your current treatment and diet: 1. *Treatment duration*: 3 months might not be sufficient for noticeable improvement. 2. *Diet*: Consuming sour and spicy foods may exacerbate vitiligo symptoms. Consider avoiding or reducing these foods. 3. *Sun protection*: Are you using sunscreen with at least SPF 30 daily? Recommendations: 1. *Consult your doctor*: Discuss your concerns and the increasing patches. 2. *Dietary changes*: Consider a balanced diet rich in antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals. 3. *Sun protection*: Ensure you're using adequate sunscreen and protective clothing. 4. *Alternative treatments*: Your doctor may suggest other options, such as phototherapy or immunomodulators. Schedule a follow-up appointment with your doctor to reassess your treatment plan.
