Scabies is an itchy skin condition caused by the microscopic mite Sarcoptes scabei. It is common all over the world, and can affect anyone. Scabies spreads quickly in crowded conditions where there is frequent skin-to-skin contact between people. Hospitals, child-care centers, and nursing homes are examples. Scabies can easily infect sex partners and other household members. Sharing clothes, towels, and bedding can sometimes spread scabies. This can happen much more easily when the infested pers...more

Hi, I have dandruff and acne, scars on my face. Acne is puss filled and of a substantial size also. I visited a derma a month ago, and she prescribed a shampoo for dandruff that did not work. Post 3 weeks, on follow up, she prescribed a ionax t (shampoo with coal tar). Now coal tar has carcinogenic components in it. Am I at a risk? She also gave me a photostatic (emulsion) sunscreen for my skin but it contains parabens. I feel that she has given me products that contain ingredients that might cause other life threatening diseases to me? Kindly tell me what to do! Apart from the above medications, im also, alternating between a spot corrector nd a scar removing cream at night, with some tablets for acne scars, a lotion to be applied at scalp on dandruff areas. Also, keracnyl pp cream during the day after using the ridacne facewash. Kindly guide me through. I have curly hair, and have developed 3-6 grey strands when she first gave me the shampoo (1st meeting). Thank you.

dear Vidhu,
seems you have read quite a lot about the medications you are applying. although tar is carcinogenic but application of small amounts in the scalp is not particularly as hazardous. so you might safely use it without any worries. ofcourse with sunscreens since you have acne you need to apply a non comedogenic one.(which is less greasy). the parabens are the preservatives used in the sunscreen which help avaoid the degradation of the product for long term use. As long as you are...more
