Question

I'm really struggling with my complexion. It's gotten very dark, and I'm not sure how to lighten it. On top of that, my skin has become super oily lately. Can you suggest what might be causing this and what I can do about it?

Question

I've noticed some black pigmented spots on my breast and between them, and they seem to be slowly getting bigger. Initially, it was just a small black spot, but now it's growing into these branch-like patterns. What might be causing this, and how should I approach getting it checked out?

Question

I've been following up on that injury I mentioned before. Do you think it's a good idea to use Betadin and let the wound stay open to air? I ended up putting turmeric powder on it, and now it's sort of caked on the wound. I'm worried that if I try to clean it, it'll take off the part that's already healed. That wound on my leg from the bike accident, about a month and a half ago, mostly healed but theres still a small area thats raw. It keeps getting this clear, watery fluidnot yellowish thoughthat seems to stop it from healing fully. I've been seeing Dr. Prashanth at Vijayshree hospital, and the dressing has helped with the pain a lot. I've been using Augmentin D and Betadin as instructed, but I'm still using turmeric since it's ayurvedic. What should I be doing differently to finally heal this completely?

Question

I've just finished a treatment for lichen planus, and the bumps and itching have stopped, thankfully. However, the marks are still visible, and I really want them gone quicker if possible. The dermatologist mentioned they'd fade over time, but is there anything I can do to speed up the process and get rid of these marks in a few months to a year?
