The darkening of the skin, dark under the eyes, and hyperpigmentation you mentioned can happen due to hormonal changes during breastfeeding. The reasons are various; it can be hormonal changes or skin sensitivity that may cause pimples. The skincare products and medications your dermatologist prescribed are the right ones for your condition during breastfeeding. The facewash, serum, and sunscreen can contribute not only to the health of your skin but also to its protection from harmful sun rays.

I think I have a fungal infection around my groin

You may have a fungus infection in your groin. It may result in scratching and irritation of the affected areas. I suggest you go to a dermatologist who can diagnose and cure your disease.

I am facing the issue of itching on cheeks, hands and back

Male | 30

Itching on cheeks, hands, and back could be due to: 
- Dry skin
- Allergic reaction 
- Eczema or psoriasis 
- Bug bites or hives 
- Medication side effect. 

Try moisturizing, avoiding irritants, and OTC antihistamines. If symptoms persist, see a dermatologist.

Pitti and kujli rash padh rahe hain aur Kyon chal rahi hai

Male | 22

The most common reasons behind this are allergies and skin irritation. You should pay attention to the products you use because they should not contain any harmful ingredients. To fight against this problem, moisturize well and avoid using soaps and chemicals that are too harsh.

I ave been suffering from staphylococcus aerus so for 7year now after treatment and medication it will reoccur I don’t know what else to do okay I want to lab last month it’s still there I can send you the if you want maa I ave taken injections now am taken augmenting quaclave as doctor prescribed to me my friends brother that is medical doctor in abroad said I should stop wasting money I should browse the internet google proved to me that vancomycin is the best injections for stubborn staph but am having double mind it won’t work maa plsss advice me on what to do thanks GOD bless

Staphylococcus aureus often leads to skin infections, boils, and even more serious problems such as bloodstream infections. It's caused by bacteria that may be hard to completely remove from the body. If the usual treatments like augmentin were ineffective in getting rid of the infection, vancomycin recommended by your friend is worth considering. Vancomycin is an antibiotic usually used as a last resort for persistent staph infections, especially those that do not respond to other antibiotics. When using vancomycin, it is important to follow your doctor's advice on dosage and treatment duration.

I am 18 year old last month i got pimple on my face and i just pinch it off everytime and now i have black spot on my face and i just want to get rid of it what should i do i can share picture if you want!!

It seems like you’ve got post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation after popping your zits. These can result in dark marks on your face. To fade them away, consider trying out products that contain vitamin C, niacinamide, or kojic acid as ingredients. Sun protection is key since UV rays can worsen the appearance of these spots. Also, remember not to irritate your skin further to avoid more dark spots.

I am 28 year female.i have ithyosis vulgaris which is very itchy and dry skin is present.what can I do?

Female | 28

You might have a condition called ichthyosis vulgaris, where the skin becomes dry and itchy because it doesn't shed properly. To manage this, it's important to keep your skin moisturized with non-irritating, fragrance-free lotions. Taking warm, not hot, showers with mild soap can also help. Don’t forget to drink plenty of water, as it helps nourish your skin from the inside.

Dr I am suffering from acne face, my face has excess oil, Dr tell me the medicine I can take

Male | 23

Acne occurs when you have these red spots on your face caused by your skin producing too much oil. It's super common, especially during the teenage years. To help, you can use a face wash with benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid. These can clear up your skin by unclogging your pores.
