Why does my hair get greasy so fast?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Over shampooing depletes vital moisturing elements from scalp and hair , in response scalps sebum glands produce more oils , giving rise to greasy scalp And improper eating habits such as diet rich in sugars, dairy products, red meat along with stress, hormonal imbalance and climate variations may also cause greasy hair

View allI've got this big black patch on my right shoulder called a baker nevus, and I know it's harmless, but it's become a big deal for me, especially because it messes with my confidence. People say its not a big deal, but that's easy for them to say. I find myself avoiding places where I'd need to take off my shirt like the gym or beach, and even at home, I don't like being shirtless because of it. It's really affecting me psychologically, and sometimes, I just feel really frustrated about it. What can I do to get rid of or manage it? Any advice would be really appreciated.

I'm dealing with a fungal infection that's been around for years and it's really bothering me. It's located on my inner thighs and has left a dark brown patch. I'm not sure if my diet could be affecting this, but I am a non-vegetarian. Could you offer any advice or treatment options?
I recommend using an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole 1% cream. Apply a thin layer on the affected area twice a day for 2-4 weeks. Additionally, you can take Fluconazole 150mg once a week for 4 weeks to treat the infection from within. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry to prevent further fungal growth.

I'm a 25-year-old guy, and I'm having some hair issues that I'm really concerned about. Every time I take a shower, I lose about 10 to 20 strands of hair, sometimes even more. It's been worrying me quite a bit, especially because I have curly hair with mild dandruff. If I skip washing my hair for just one day, my scalp gets super oily, and the dandruff gets worse. And when I shave my head, I notice patchy dandruff along with some red spots on my scalp. Is there something I should be worried about here or some steps I can take to address these?
Losing ten to twenty strands is not significant... Maybe the dandruff is causing u to lose hair a little faster than normal... Oil massage at night is good after adding a little lemon... Don't oil in the day as it attracts dust... Do it for some time.. it will definitely improve
