Are acne scars permanent?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
That depends on the depth and type of the scars. With few types of peels and derma abrasions depth of the scars can be reduced.

View allI've been dealing with a mild itch around my anus, so I put some Dettol on it. Now it's a bit swollen and there's this weird sticky feeling that won't go away, even after I clean it with water. There's no pain, though. Could Dettol have caused this, or is it just something from the itch itself? What can I do to get rid of that sticky sensation?
Discontinue using Dettol, as it can be too harsh for anal skin, and instead, try the following to alleviate the sticky feeling and swelling: clean the area gently with warm water; apply a fragrance-free, hypoallergenic soap or a mild cleanser specifically designed for anal care; pat dry, avoiding rubbing or scratching; apply a thin layer of a soothing cream or ointment, such as hydrocortisone or aloe vera gel; and consider taking an oral antihistamine or applying a topical antihistamine cream to reduce itching and inflammation.

I've been struggling with itching all over my body for the past 3 years and nothing seems to help. I've tried avil, citrezine, and dexona injections, and even allerga, but no relief. I noticed that my lymphocyte count is pretty high at 55.8. What could be causing this?
Persistent whole-body itching for 3 years, despite trying various medications, suggests an underlying condition that needs further investigation; high lymphocyte count (55.8%) may indicate an allergic reaction, infection, or immune system disorder; consider consulting a dermatologist
