Question

I've been using Fair & Handsome cream and I'm 16, but I've noticed a lot of pimples and dark spots on my face. I'm really concerned and curious if the cream might be causing this. What should I do to clear my skin up?

Question

I'm really concerned because one side of my cheek is getting darker and I'm guessing it might be because of pimples. Is there any medication or treatment that can help get rid of this?

Question

I'm noticing these kind of spots on my foreskin and glans area, and I'm a bit worried. They don't itch or bother me, but I can't help but wonder if they're something serious. I've seen a dermatologist who mentioned they might be fordyce spots. Could these spots appear on the glans as well? Just trying to figure out if it's normal or if I should be more concerned.

Question

I'm really worried about some skin issues I've been facing. I tried using apple cider vinegar, tea tree oil, and multani mitti on a few spots on my face. I left it on for about 20 minutes and washed it off. But then, those areas turned frosted and by the next morning, they started to look brown. I made the mistake of trying to peel them off and now it feels like it's burning a lot, with pinkish skin showing underneath. I'm really concerned about scarring. I'm currently using hydrocortisone 1 cream and keeping the areas moisturized, but I'm not sure what else I should do. How long will it take for my skin to heal and return to normal? Any advice or precautions would be really appreciated.
