2 days ago, I accidentally touched the hot silencer of my bike with the lower part of my leg just above my feet. I quickly did a cold compress and have been using Silverex Ionic on it since. Now, the skin has turned dark and dry, and I'm noticing a lot of blisters that keep breaking. Most of the time a water-like substance is coming out of them. What medications should I take? I'm also attaching some pictures from when the accident happened and what it looks like now. Any advice would be appreciated.

View allI've been dealing with this itchiness and discomfort when swallowing for the past three months, and I've also noticed a white cream-like substance on the top of my penis. I started using Candid B cream on it and have taken some tablets and capsules, but I'm not sure if it's helping. Could this be something serious, and is there anything else I should try or be worried about?
It sounds like you might be dealing with a fungal infection, which is common in such areas. The use of Candid-B cream could help, but if the condition persists, its important to see a doctor for a proper diagnosis and possibly a more targeted treatment plan. Keeping the area dry and clean is also crucial for healing.

I've noticed my skin tone is a bit uneven and there's a tan on my face. My dermatologist recommended I start using Demelan cream. Before this, I was using Tretinoin 0.04. Is it alright to switch between Tretinoin and Demelan cream every other night?

I've had acanthosis nigricans on my neck for 11 years now and creams from doctors didn't help at all. I'm overweight but I exercise every day, and my dad has diabetes. I'm 18 and really want to get rid of this completely can plastic surgery or laser treatments cure acanthosis nigricans?
Laser treatments like Q-switch or chemical peels help mild cases—surgery is rare; weight loss and insulin control are key.
