Your question about whether acne scars will go away is very common and understandable. Here's what you should know:

  1. Natural fading: Acne scars often improve over time, especially with good skin care, but some scars may persist longer.

  2. Types of scars: Some scars are more likely to fade naturally, while others might need treatment.

  3. Treatment options: There are effective treatments available, such as topical creams, chemical peels, laser therapy, and microneedling, which can help reduce the appearance of scars.

  4. Consultation: It's best to see a dermatologist who can assess your skin and recommend the most suitable treatment based on your scar type and skin.

Remember, with proper care and treatment, many people see significant improvement in their acne scars. Don't hesitate to seek professional advice to explore your options.

I've been dealing with these really itchy red circles on my skin, and it's kind of freaking me out. The edges of these circles have these little boil-like bumps, and when they dry out, there's this white flaky stuff. Does this sound familiar to you, and what do you think it might be? I'm really hoping for some advice on what could be causing this and what I should do next.

It sounds like you may be experiencing a fungal infection, such as ringworm. I recommend using an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole 1% cream. Apply a thin layer to the affected area twice a day for 2-4 weeks. Additionally, you can take an oral antifungal medication like Fluconazole 150mg once a week for 2-4 weeks to help clear up the infection. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry to prevent further irritation.

I'm concerned about my friend who was advised not to use steroids by the doctor. Would it be okay for him to take Suhagra tablets instead? I'm just worried and want to make sure he's making the right decision.

No he is not supposed to use unless indicated and advised by your doctor.

I've been masturbating every day for the past three months and I'm worried if this could have any harmful effects or cause problems in the future. Can you give me some advice on whether this is something to be concerned about?

Masturbation is a normal and healthy part of human sexuality. Masturbating once a day for 3 months is unlikely to cause harm. However, consider: - _Overstimulation_: Frequent masturbation can lead to temporary desensitization or discomfort. - _Skin irritation_: Aggressive or rough masturbation can cause skin irritation or injury. - _Impact on relationships_: Excessive masturbation might affect your relationships or daily life. No significant long-term problems are expected. If you're concerned, consult a healthcare provider or a sexologist for personalized advice.
