Question

I'm dealing with an old cut scar on my left hand, and I'm really interested in figuring out how to remove it permanently. It's been there for 67 years and happened due to a cutter. Could you advise me on the best way to get rid of it?

Question

I'm a 22-year-old woman living in a small town in Maharashtra. I've struggled with acne in the past, and while it's under control now, I'm left with scars on my face. Do you have any easy and quick home remedies for fading these acne scars?

Question

I've got this thin light black-brown line right in the middle of my left thumb, and I dont feel any pain or itching from it. I cant recall injuring my thumb, though. I talked to a doctor, but not a Dermatologist. He guessed it was some fungal infection, so I took medicine for a week. The line hasnt disappeared or gotten darker, but the doctor said it looked slightly lighter and told me not to worry about it. It doesnt appear on any other fingers on my hands or feet. Should I be concerned about this line? Should I get a second opinion, maybe from a Dermatologist? Is it something that needs urgent attention?

Question

I'm dealing with this really annoying pain right at my tailbone and on the skin around it, exactly where the upper part of the butt cheeks meet. It usually flares up when I'm lying on my back and puts pressure on that area. Honestly, it's been so painful that it's making sleep tough. I've had a bed sore just above that spot for years, but it sorta dried up. This new pain started about a week ago. I'm really confused about whether this is a skin thing or more of a bone issue. Who should I talk to? Do you have any idea what might be causing this?
