Hi sir, My self prashanth faceing problem fungal infection leg last finger getting tomuch of pain

Male | 37

Hi Prashant. Fungal infection of toe nail is a common in people who are in professions where there feet remain moist or have to wear shoes for long period of time. You need to keep your feet dry. Change socks twice a day. Use powder on feet before putting on socks. 

For the fungal infection already there You need a long course of around 6 months of antifungal ointment.  As u are having too much pain there may be superinfection by a bacteria. You would also need to use a topical antibiotic ointment for 7-10 days.

Stretch marks problm I will remove my stretch marks on few month I can request for you you can suggest a oil to my stretch Mark's to apply

Female | 20

Stretch marks appear when the skin stretches too quickly, like during a growth spurt or pregnancy. They often start as red or purple lines and gradually fade to a lighter color. To reduce their appearance, you can try using oils like almond or coconut oil. Regularly massaging these oils into the affected areas can help keep the skin hydrated and may reduce the visibility of stretch marks over time. Be patient, as noticeable results may take a while to appear.

I am 22years old female and have acne or my face for last few years. I have not taken any treatment before this. And my one more thing is I have acne which are filled filled with pus, kindly suggest me what to do? How I can get rid of it?

Female | 22

Acne can cause by hormonal changes, stress, genetics, or other factors. If you have acne that is filled with pus, it is likely that you have an infection. Consult a dermatologist as soon as possible in order to get the proper treatment. You may need topical medication, an antibiotic or other treatment to get rid of the infection and reduce the breakouts. Keep your skin clean and moisturized, avoid touching your face again and again, and limit your exposure to dust and pollution.
