Stepping out of the house was a challenge, taking care of our fitness, meeting relatives and seeing a doctor was not even a possibility. Limiting our life to our homes only COVID19 lockdown caused major upsets in almost everything.
During this time, stress and too much anxiety caused so many other issues such as acne breakouts and excessive hairfall but what actually the problem was that the dermatologists were focused only on the emergency cases. Rest of the people with everyday issues were ignored and were not attended. For this, there was no solution.
Not having a doctor to go to, not being able to take guidance from a health professional and also being stuck at home leads to self medication. Self medication in any case is harmful and can even cost you your life.

Meanwhile, Pakistan’s first telemedicine service was in working, they offered people to stay at their home and get free COVID19 consultations through video calls and also through audio calls.
