Question

I'm noticing that the skin on my fingertips is suddenly getting thicker and kind of dry. Its happening on both my hand and foot fingers. I used to have really soft fingertips before, so I'm a bit concerned about this change. The skin is so thick that I actually have to shape them. I generally have oily skin, so this is quite new for me. What could be causing this?

Question

I'm curious about whether taking Tretino Iso 10mg tablets will help reduce my pore size and smooth my skin. My doctor gave me a prescription for 30 tablets, but I'm not sure if I should start taking them yet. Could you provide some guidance?

Question

I've used Dettol on my skin, and now the area around it has darkened. Is this something that will go away on its own? It's also causing some irritation. What should I do about it?

Question

I've been having this burning pain in my left armpit for the past two weeks. I got an ultrasound of my breast, and it showed enlarged lymph nodes in both armpits and a cyst in one breast. But the doctor said that couldn't be the cause of the burning. I'm really curious why there's still this burning sensation. I did notice some redness and irritation in the same armpit about three weeks ago after using some perfume, but that seems to have gotten better. There's no burning in my right armpit. Are there any ideas on what could be causing this since I don't see any visible patch?
