Question

I have these black spots on the left side of my chest that have been there since I was 12. Theyre flat, irregular in shape, and blend in with my skin, but theyve started spreading over the years. Even though they dont itch or hurt, the change in their color is worrying me. A homeopathy doctor once mentioned its a melanin issue, but Im feeling anxious about it now. What do you think could be causing this, and should I be concerned about them spreading further?

Question

I've been dealing with these recurring abscesses for the past few months, and it's getting pretty frustrating. Some of them are really painful and take days to heal, while others get better faster. Whenever one is about to drain, the pain gets intense enough that I have to rely on Flexone to manage it. Is there something I can do to prevent them from happening so often? Should I be concerned about how frequently they occur?
