Why Are My Knees Darker After Using Elosone HT Cream?
Hello sir /ma'am From the past 3 months i was using elosone ht skin cream over my knee areas, because of the sun exposure my knee became very dark and they were looking very odd. That's why i was using it in my knee areas only, also it was having visible results. 4 5 days back i saw my knees and suddenly i was in shock. My knees are looking very scary. The area where i use to apply the cream the whole area is covered with a dark patch which is 2x darker than before i had. Please help me it is looking very scary and i can't even wear shorts due to this.

The cream you were using might have led to the development of a skin condition known as skin atrophy which causes the skin to become thin and darker. This can occur if certain steroid creams are applied for an extended duration on sensitive areas like the knees. It's vital to discontinue the cream instantly and see a dermatologist for a thorough examination and advice on how to improve the skin condition.

I have facial hair growth over both chin and upper lip. Its because of hormonal imbalance my DHEA level is 180. So may i know if laser hair removal will help get rid of this facial hair growth.
Female | 29
Laser hair removal can be an effective way to remove unwanted facial hair. But it is important to discuss any hormonal imbalances with your doctor before beginning a treatment plan. Laser hair removal may not be the best option for you if your DHEA level is high as this could lead to an increased risk of side effects. Your doctor may suggest other options such as oral medications, topical creams, or electrolysis.

I wanna use glutathione as my skin is getting darker
Female | 21
Some people wish for lighter skin, but glutathione may not help. Increased pigmentation can be caused by factors like UV rays or skin issues. Trying to change your complexion with glutathione can be risky and might not work. It’s better to focus on using sunscreen, staying hydrated, and eating a healthy diet to keep your skin healthy and glowing.

Female | 23
This might happen due to various reasons like irritation from soaps, wearing tight clothes, or infections like yeast. Try wearing loose cotton underwear, avoid scented products, and keep the area clean and dry. If the itching persists, it’s best to have it checked by a dermatologist for proper treatment.

Sir, I want to ask about peeling oil. Does extra strong yellow peeling oil really peel the skin???
Female | 24
This product is effective in removing the skin, yet it is extremely important to be considerate. Using strong peeling oils can cause redness, burning, and even damage to the skin. These products work by peeling off the top layer of the skin, which tends to improve skin appearance, but their wrong application can cause great trouble to the user. The best way is to consult a dermatologist before using those products to prevent side effects.

Hi ..i am 30 yr old girl and unmarried .I have acne breakouts in my face and back ..its so painful and sometime it turns white and give blood from that without touching too .i tried lot of home remedy solutions but still breakout doesn't goes away .
Female | 30
Acne management is a comprehensive approach. That acquires removing of oil using proper facewash, containing salicylic acid, or lactic acid, then avoiding oiling of the scalpels and using tropicals containing cleaner and antibiotics and if hormonal imbalances there, that has to be corrected. So please visit our nearest dermatologist for the same.

Male | 36
It sounds like you could be experiencing balanitis, inflammation of the foreskin of the penis, often caused by irritation or a yeast infection. Symptoms may include white pimples, swelling, and itchiness. Keeping the area clean and dry, avoiding irritants, and using over-the-counter antifungal cream can help relieve symptoms. However, if symptoms persist or worsen, it's crucial to seek immediate advice from a dermatologist for detailed assessment and medical treatment.

Male | 28
You might have contact dermatitis. It happens when something irritates your skin, like a cream or soap. The rashes, pimples on your thighs, and itching could be the cause. The swelling on your penis might be related too. Stop using the cream and gently wash the areas with mild soap and water. Keep it dry, don't scratch. If it doesn't get better, see a dermatologist.

I have noticed white patch on my face near upper lips can u pls suggest solution
Female | 20
Vitiligo is a medical issue leading to pale spots on skin areas. It happens when your body attacks its own cells. Or vitiligo may stem from inherited genes. There's no permanent fix, but creams and light treatment can help blend skin tones better. Sun protection is key to stop color changes. You can also visit a dermatologist for treatment.

I am 29 year old female. I am sexually active and do like whip play. Recently, my partner was whipping my breasts with his belt and swelling and bruising happened. It has gone down, however on my right breast a hard lump has appeared under my skin. Is this something to worry about or just a large bruise?
Female | 29
Swelling and bruising are common for rough activities. A lump may form after injuring the breast. These bumps are caused by blood collecting under the skin. You should monitor it closely. If it persists or causes any pain, seek medical attention immediately.

Skin atrophy is the thinning of the skin and it can happen for different reasons like aging, steroid abuse, or some medical conditions. Skin atrophy is the major issue and it is necessary to use gentle lotions and creams to keep your skin moisturized to solve it. Refrain from harsh chemicals and cover your skin from the sun. Eating a balanced meal full of vitamins and minerals can also help your skin. Always bear in mind that the major reason for taking good care of the skin is for the overall well-being of the body.

Sir I have a fungal infection in my internal for six months i have used many things like tupe dermiquick 5, ketoconazole,itchaway ,niyomysin, but they don't work
Male | 17
You are probably fighting a fungus that just won’t go away. Fungi are caused by very tiny living things that like warm and wet spots. Symptoms can include itching, redness, and sometimes a rash. Since what you have tried so far has not worked, it is important to see a dermatologist. They might give you stronger drugs or recommend other treatments to help get rid of the infection.

Hi I am 21 years old I am suffering face white heads severely on nose and blackheads also facing open pores and facing sabeceous filaments on chin tell me about best sunblock and best treatment of these things
Female | 21
These are common issues at your age. They happen because your skin makes too much oil and dead skin cells clog your pores. To help, use a sunblock with SPF 30 or higher to protect your skin. A good treatment would include gentle cleansing with salicylic acid, use non-comedogenic moisturizers, and see a dermatologist for specific suggestions about your skin.
