View allI'm wondering if I should keep taking the POPSON INTAS tablets that my doctor recommended. I'm supposed to have one in the morning and one at night, but when I took it just once at night, I ended up with body pain, especially in my hands, legs, and joints, and I felt really dizzy. I stopped taking it for now because I wasn't feeling well. Should I continue with this medication despite these side effects?
Kindly stop taking the medication, you can start taking tab Aceclofenac 100 mg ,orally once daily for 7 days is advised to the patient.

I've had dark circles since I was really young and even tried avarta under eye cream prescribed by a dermatologist but it didn't help at all. Could this be a hereditary issue? Would I need cosmetic procedures to fix this or are there other treatments I should try first
Yes, genetics can be a significant factor in the appearance of dark circles, especially if you've had them since you were young and a prescribed cream didn't help. Cosmetic procedures can be an option, but they are not always necessary. There are other treatments you could try first, like lifestyle changes and home remedies, or medical treatments like fillers or laser therapy if the dark circles are caused by volume loss or pigmentation

My lips are getting darker every day and I don't know why. I don't smoke or use caffeine, and I avoid putting any local products on my lips. Every time I see a dermatologist, they don't even check my lips and just say laser surgery is the only option. Is there anything else I can do to fix this?
Dark lips can be caused by various factors beyond local products, including sun exposure, dehydration, and even underlying medical conditions. While laser surgery might be an option, it's crucial to explore other possibilities and consider your own risk tolerance
