Management of hair/nail disorders in Hebbal, Bangalore

For Hair Disorders

Hair is very significant in our life. Our head hair insulates us from the cold and cushions our skull. Hair look also contributes to how we see ourselves, which makes hair loss quite disturbing. Though most hair diseases aren't dangerous, they are often seen as significant aesthetic problems that must be addressed. The most typical hair loss is androgenetic alopecia, but other hair disorders may affect the scalp and other areas of the body.

Prevention

  • The majority of hair issues are inherited and cannot be changed. 

  • Several lifestyle choices may protect the hair and scalp. 

  • Improve your hair and skin condition by eating a balanced diet and using sunblock. 

  • Additionally, you must avoid or limit the usage of dryers and hairstyles that pull or stress the hair.

Treatments

The disorder and its underlying causes will determine how hairfall treatment in Hebbal, Bangalore is being processed. Not every condition has a medical cure, but altering your haircut or wearing a hat may help you seem better on the outside.

Oral Medication: Hair problems may be treated with a variety of prescription medications,

  • For dietary deficits, vitamin supplements could be suggested.

  • Hair growth may be restored, and hormone replacement treatment can treat hormone abnormalities.

  • Doctors may give oral steroids or anti-inflammatory antibiotics for hair issues accompanied by skin irritation.

  • SSRI medications may be used to address mental health conditions that underlie impulsive hair pulling.

Topical Treatment: Minoxidil topical drug encourages hair growth in persons with androgenetic alopecia.

Hair Replacement: Some hair problems harm the follicles and result in permanent hair loss, making further hair development impossible. The use of wigs or hair transplant surgery may help those with certain skin conditions. In some conditions, hair restoration cannot be done until the affected hair follicles have recovered.

For Nail Disorders

Our nails may be impacted by various disorders, each with a unique cause and course of therapy. The sort of fungus causing your problem and its severity will determine how you should be treated.

Medications

Antifungal medications may be prescribed by your doctor for oral use or topically on the nail.

  • Oral antifungal drugs: These medications are often chosen initially, and Itraconazole is one alternative. With the aid of these medications, a new, clean nail gradually replaces the diseased one. This medication is typically used every day for six to twelve weeks. However, you won't experience the full effects of the procedure until the nail has fully grown back. An infection may be gone after four months or more. 

  • Medicated nail polish: Your physician could suggest ciclopirox, an antifungal nail paint. You apply it once daily to the skin around the diseased nails. After seven days, use alcohol to clear off the piled-on layers before starting new treatments.

  • Medicated nail cream: Your doctor could suggest an antifungal cream. After soaking, you apply this product to your affected nails. If you thin the nails beforehand, these lotions could work more effectively.

Surgery

Your dermatology doctor in Hebbal at Manipal Hospitals could advise temporarily removing the nail so that the infection beneath it can be treated with an antifungal medication. Surgery to altogether remove the nail and its root is the most effective but least often performed method.
