Skin, Hair and Nail Problems
Grey hair at age 13
Hello, my son is 13 years old, and I have recently noticed 2–3 grey/white hairs appearing in different areas of his scalp. He eats reasonably well, but I’m still concerned because he is quite young. I am his mother, and my own hair started turning grey when I was around 14–15 years old. Could this family history be one of the reasons for his early greying? If genetics can be a factor, is there anything I can do from now onwards to prevent or slow down further greying in my child? Please guide me on what I should check or do. Thank you.

Hairfall related concern and health issu
Hello Doctor,
My ferritin level is *7.2 ng/mL which is very low.
I visited a local doctor and he gave me:
1. *FeratinXT*
2. *Hairget*
I have been taking them for *2 weeks*. For 2 weeks my hair shedding had completely stopped, but now it has started again heavily.
I also have:
- High anxiety and I remain stressed most of the time
- Very low weight
- Hair fall is my main concern
I want to know what else I should do? also my eyelashes are falling too Is this medicine enough or do I need to change dosage My diet is also not very good.
I have attached my ferritin report.
Please advise.

Hair fall issues
Hello Doctor, I need advice regarding recent hair fall and thinning, mainly around my crown/top area. I have lost around 20 kg of body weight, and after the weight loss I started noticing increased hair fall and reduced hair density. I would like to know whether this could be temporary shedding due to weight loss (telogen effluvium), male-pattern hair loss, nutritional deficiency, or a combination.
I am considering minoxidil but would like a dermatologist’s advice first. I have heard that hair gained/maintained with minoxidil can fall again after stopping it. Is this true, and would it be suitable for me?
Should I get tests for ferritin/iron, vitamin D, B12, thyroid, zinc, etc.? Please also advise what treatment would be best. I can share scalp photos if required.
I am also sharing the picture of the scalp for your reference and pls give ma solution and elaborate in detail..
thanks

Pigmentation over lip corner, dark spots
I have blackness and pigmentation around and in the lip corners and dark spots all over my face, i was recommended "Aziderm" and it helped with dark spots but not with pigmentation around lip corners and again i am facing dark spots too but "Aziderm" stings as well so it's tough to use as well.
(I am using Himalaya dace wash
Simple moisturizer
A milky toner as well
Time to time clay mask)
my face is oily but when i use Aziderm for few days then my skin gets very dry specially on the pigmentation that is around lips even moisturizer doesn't help then.
(Accepting that i do have a habit of picking pimples sometimes.)

Itching in my groin area
I am not concerned in visiting a dermatologist for this issue. But too much of itching in my groin area for past few days. I have cleaned up the area tried moisturiser but didn't help. In person consultation is a bit of a difficult task for me even though I know it's the normal procedure. Video call isn't an option either basically I can share pics or show the pics to the doctor I visit of that area but not sure if that will help.
Any basic creams that I can try
