I got my upper left molar pulled six days ago. I've been very diligent about following post op instructions and monitoring the healing process as I don't want to mess it up or give myself an infection.

I do regular salt water rinses after meals, no straws, and have maintained my soft foods.

I noticed there's this little bleb over the clot. When comparing my socket to others at my current stage I don't see this. I wanted to know, am I healing normally? Is this just new skin growing?

I'm very anxious about it

22F, I recently got diagnosed with androgenetic alopecia :(

I have anemia, which I got sorted out (my ferritin was at a 7) and it's been at least five months since i concluded my treatment for it. With my iron levels back to normal i'm still losing so much hair. My derm said if resolving my iron doesn't work its highly likely i have female pattern alopecia. I see a lot of people talking about minoxidil but I wanted to know what everyone's tried and what seems worth it to try prior to coughing up the big bucks to get an appointment with my dermatologist.
