I'm noticing a lot of small moles popping up on my face, and I'm curious about why they're appearing. I've been using neem and aloe vera face washes, along with Himalaya's day and night creams, hoping they'd help clear these moles up. Should I be doing something different, or is there a deeper reason for these moles showing up?
Small moles on the face can be a cosmetic concern. Here's what you need to know: *Causes of Moles* 1. *Genetics*: Moles can run in families. 2. *Sun exposure*: UV radiation can stimulate the growth of moles. 3. *Hormonal changes*: Hormonal fluctuations during pregnancy, puberty, or menopause can lead to mole growth. 4. *Skin type*: People with fair skin are more prone to moles. *Your Current Skincare Routine* 1. *Neem face wash*: Neem has antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties, which can help with acne and skin clarity. 2. *Aloe vera face wash*: Aloe vera can help soothe and calm the skin. 3. *Himalaya day and night creams*: These creams can help moisturize and nourish your skin. *Additional Tips to Reduce Moles* 1. *Sun protection*: Use a broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least SPF 30 daily. 2. *Exfoliate regularly*: Gently exfoliate your skin 1-2 times a week to remove dead skin cells. 3. *Avoid picking or scratching*: Refrain from picking or scratching moles, as this can lead to infection, scarring, or skin irritation.

I've had this allergy on my hand for about three months now. Initially, it seemed really small, so I didn't pay much attention to it, but recently it's grown quite big. Should I be worried about it? What steps can I take to treat it, and is it normal for it to have gotten this much worse over time?
It sounds like you may have developed a skin infection or a severe allergic reaction. I recommend using a topical corticosteroid cream like Betamethasone 0.1% twice a day on the affected area. Additionally, taking an oral antihistamine like Cetirizine 10mg once daily can help with itching and inflammation. It is important to keep the area clean and dry, and avoid scratching to prevent further irritation. If the condition does not improve or worsens, please seek medical attention for further evaluation and management.
