  1. Mango and Acne:

    • Mango consumption is generally not a direct cause of acne.
    • Acne is influenced by hormones, genetics, and skin hygiene.
  2. Dietary Considerations:

    • Some individuals may be sensitive to high-sugar foods like mangoes.
    • Such foods can potentially trigger or worsen acne due to increased oil production.
  3. General Advice:

    • Maintain a balanced diet with fruits, vegetables, and adequate hydration.
    • Monitor if mangoes affect your acne and adjust intake accordingly.
  4. Further Steps:

    • For persistent acne, consult a dermatologist for personalized advice.

I'm not overweight and I do exercises regularly, but I've got Acanthosis nigricans on my neck and some other parts of my body. It's really frustrating and I'm starting to feel a bit depressed about it. I feel like I'm perfectly fit, so I'm just confused why I'm dealing with this. Is there any way to get my normal skin back?

Acanthosis nigricans can sometimes occur in individuals who are not overweight and lead an active lifestyle. To help improve the appearance of Acanthosis nigricans, you can try using a topical cream containing 20% urea or 12% ammonium lactate. These creams can help exfoliate the affected areas and improve the skin texture. Additionally, maintaining a healthy diet and keeping your skin well moisturized can also help in reducing the appearance of Acanthosis nigricans.

I've had this pea-sized lump on my bikini line for almost two years now. It sometimes oozes pus, and while I've had similar ones before, they've never lasted this longusually just a week or so. This one feels hard and sometimes shrinks a lot, but then it puffs back up again. Should I be worried about it, and what could it possibly be?

It sounds like you may have a recurrent abscess in your bikini area. I recommend using an antibiotic ointment like Neosporin and applying it to the affected area twice a day after cleaning it with mild soap and water. You can also take an over-the-counter pain reliever like ibuprofen to help with any discomfort. If the lump does not improve or if you develop a fever, please seek medical attention for further evaluation and possible drainage of the abscess.
