Question

I've noticed that my dad has had this wart under his right armpit for quite a while now, maybe a few years. It doesn't bother him since it's not painful, red, or itchy. But the other day, he found another wart under his left armpit. This one hurts when he touches it, although it isn't red or itchy, and there's no pus. Could these warts be a sign of something more serious? Do you think he needs to get it checked out soon?

Question

I'm trying to understand how to properly use this coal tar and salicylic acid scalp solution. After I apply it, do I need to wash my hair right after, or should I leave it on overnight? I'm a little confused about what the best way to use it is. Can you help clarify this for me?

Question

I'm dealing with these lipomas that are gradually getting bigger and I'm really worried about it. The doctor mentioned that surgery might actually cause them to come back, so I'm hesitant about that route. Do you know of any treatments that could help reduce their size or at least stop them from spreading? I'm hoping for a solution that avoids making things worse.

Question

I'm trying to figure out which soap is better for my skin, Dermadew or Kojic, because my doctor recommended Dermadew along with Melaglow cream. I'm just wondering if I should stick with that advice or consider other options. Can you help?
