Hello Kushal,
1. Increase in weight can be attributed to either diet & lifestyle issues or secondary to a metabolic disorder.
Management involves regular exercise & intake of low calorie, low fat diet.
In addition, certain investigations like estimation of blood pressure & blood sugar levels, Thyroid profile & Lipid profile will be helpful to rule out any pathological cause.
2. Dandruff is basically Seborrheic dermatitis & can be treated with shampoos or lotion containing salicylic acid, coal tar, ketoconazole, or selenium.
Once the problem of dandruff is under control, hair fall can be prevented by following measures:
(a) Multivitamin & mineral supplementation
(b) Minoxidil solution to be applied locally to stimulate the hair follicles
3. Black marks of pimples on face can be controlled with the help of ointments or chemical peeling.
So, it will be better to consult a Dermatologist & start treatment accordingly.
There is no need to worry.
Wishing you a Good Health
Take care.
