Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Small, red pinhead likenrashes which seem to be deeply embedded in skin. The rash cannot be felt by running our hand across it.

View allI've been dealing with some pretty bad itching and rashes all over my body. I already took an anti-allergy pill but it didn't seem to help at all. Before this, I had a fever and took paracetamol for it. Could you suggest something better for these symptoms?

I've noticed that my arms are darker compared to the rest of my body, which has been bothering me. I've tried using body lotions, homemade scrubs, and cucumber juice masks, but they only seem to work temporarily. I'm looking for something effective to help even out my skin tone. Plus, I have sensitive and slightly dry skin. Any advice on what could work for me?
To help even out your skin tone and address sensitivity and dryness, I recommend using a skin-lightening cream containing hydroquinone or kojic acid. You can try using "Meladerm" cream twice a day on the affected areas. Additionally, incorporating a moisturizer like "Cetaphil Moisturizing Cream" can help hydrate your skin and improve its overall texture. Remember to apply sunscreen daily to protect your skin from further darkening.

I'm getting really worried about the darkening of my underarms. It all started after I began using deodorants, and even though I stopped, they just keep getting darker. I've tried several whitening creams and home remedies, but nothing seems to work. I've switched to using turmeric extract with lime and honey for the past four days. I wax my underarms regularly, and I don't have any medical issues that I know of. What could be causing this, and is there anything else I should try?
