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

I'm really concerned because my HSV IgG test came back positive with a range of 24. It's been about a year since I got this virus, and I'm really scared since I've read that there's no cure for herpes. Thankfully, I haven't had any symptoms like pain, swelling, itching, or ulcers on my penis. Next year, I'm getting married, and I'm terrified of infecting my partner. Is there any way to manage or treat this so it doesnt affect my future spouse?

I've noticed something growing on my right bass, and it's really painful whenever I touch it. What could this be, and should I be worried?

Loose skin on the labia majora can be a concern. _Natural methods to tighten loose skin:_ 1. *Kegel exercises*: Strengthen your pelvic floor muscles with Kegel exercises, which can help tighten the skin. 2. *Squats and lunges*: Regular squats and lunges can help tone the muscles around the labia majora. 3. *Yoga and Pilates*: Certain yoga and Pilates exercises, such as pelvic tilts and bridges, can help strengthen the pelvic floor muscles. 4. *Vaginal tightening creams*: Some natural creams, such as those containing aloe vera, vitamin E, or tea tree oil, may help tighten the skin. 5. *Estrogen-boosting foods*: Include estrogen-boosting foods like soybeans, flaxseeds, and sesame seeds in your diet. _Why looseness occurs at 24:_ 1. *Hormonal changes*: Fluctuations in estrogen levels can cause skin laxity. 2. *Childbirth*: Although you're 24, if you've had a child, childbirth can cause stretching of the skin. 3. *Genetics*: Genetic factors can influence skin elasticity. 4. *Aging*: Skin naturally loses elasticity with age. 5. *Lack of exercise*: Sedentary lifestyle can contribute to weak pelvic floor muscles.

I've been dealing with some really weird lip issues. It started with my lips swelling from top to bottom, and after a few days, they went back down. But then, they started darkening and eventually turned completely black. Now they're super dry and chapped and sometimes burn depending on what I put on them. I'm really not sure what's going on or what to do about it. Can you help me figure this out?

This sounds like a condition called post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation of the lips. To help with the darkening, dryness, and chapping of your lips, I recommend using a lip balm containing hydrocortisone and sunscreen during the day. You can also apply a thin layer of hydroquinone cream at night to help lighten the dark pigmentation. Additionally, make sure to stay hydrated and avoid licking your lips, as saliva can further dry them out. If the symptoms persist or worsen, consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and management.
