Tinea versicolor can be treated with antifungal creams. Please apply it to the affected area twice a day for 2 weeks. If you don't see any improvement, please try oral antifungal. Also, keep the area dry and clean and avoid wearing tight clothes as this can make the affected area sweaty. If the problem does not go away still, please consult a doctor for the same.

In my back acne and itching

Male | 32

Back acne occurs when hair follicles become blocked with oil and dead skin cells, leading to bumps on the skin. This condition can be worsened by sweating or wearing tight clothes. The itchiness is often due to irritation caused by the acne. To manage back acne, try using a mild cleanser and avoid wearing tight clothing. Use oil-free lotions and refrain from scratching your skin, this can worsen the condition.

I did surgery on Keloid on my back but the wound is not healing fast. Please what do should I do to stop the keloid from growing back again.

Male | 43

A keloid is when the skin grows too much after an injury has healed. They may feel itchy or painful. You could use silicone sheets or gel over the wound to stop it from growing back. Additionally, ask your physician about corticosteroid injections which can help flatten the keloid.

my hair fall day by day increase why any thing wrong?

Male | 30

Hair fall is a common issue but it becomes a point of concern every day with the amount of hair shed as a result of stress, poor diet, or health problems. A balanced diet, stress management, and the treatment of underlying health issues are the best ways to take care of your health. The use of mild hair care products and avoiding high heat can also be beneficial.

Face wash for whitening for men glow removes blushing

Male | 21

You should understand that skin color is natural and spe­cial for each person. Men, like­ everyone e­lse, must use a gentle­ face wash for daily cleaning without harsh chemicals. Products for white­ning can be bad and may not remove blushing we­ll. Blushing often happens because­ of emotions or surroundings. Instead of looking for whitening products, focus on caring for your skin with a good die­t, drinking enough water, and protecting it from the­ sun.
