Skin, Hair and Nail Problems

I have suddenly developed hair miniaturization and thinning. I do not have baldness from either my father’s side or mother’s side of the family, but my doctor still prescribed Finasteride. I started Finasteride, but it is not helping my hair fall much. My hair is still thinning and becoming almost invisible very fast. My questions: Can a scalp/hair biopsy confirm whether my hair miniaturization is caused by DHT-related male pattern baldness or by something else such as deficiency, inflammation, or another condition? If yes: • How accurate is the biopsy? • What tests are usually done along with it? • What is the approximate cost in India?

I facing a problem with the foreskin of my penis. It has become tight around the head and the skin cannot be rolled down when erect. It has become painfully tight when trying to pull it down or roll up.

Respected Doctors, Have been living with chronic urticaria since May 2025, currently on eBast 80 + livocitrazine daily, visited multiple doctors and have been on Zemperd also, now suggested omalizumab or immuno suppressents which I'm reluctant to take. My joints have also started paining because of this. Had taken the homeopathic and ayurvedic treatment but didn't get much relief. * Test done: ANA, Anti CCP, HLA B27, G6pd, and complete body checkup, TB and chest X-rays. Please suggest it is curable, as my life has become hell now.

Hello Docs, I have had keratosis pilaris since my teens. I'm looking to start treatment for it again , I have done 6 months of xerina cream with cetaphil lotion and it was helpful . I'm looking to work on the pigmentation, I can go for any treatments including the peels and also laser hair reduction if it's helpful and recommended. Please leave your insights ! Thank you for stopping by.
