View allI've noticed a bruise on my thigh, and it's been there for about four days without fading. It's round and has this blue-violet color around the outside but the center is just normal skin, kind of white. I'm starting to get worried. What could this mean?
The bruise you are describing with a blue-violet color on the outside and white in the center is likely a hematoma. To help with the healing process and reduce the discoloration, you can apply a topical arnica gel or cream to the bruise area. Additionally, taking oral arnica tablets can also help with bruise healing. Make sure to follow the recommended dosage instructions on the product packaging. If the bruise persists or worsens, it is advisable to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation.

I've been dealing with some pimples on my face, and my dermatologist advised me to use Melapik Ever cream at night along with the Lumiedge bathing bar. After trying it for just one day, I started experiencing itching, burning sensations, and extreme dryness on my face. Plus, my skin has gotten noticeably darker. Now, the doctor suggested switching to Kojiglow Forte cream. Could you let me know if this is the right move? I'm a bit concerned.
It is possible that your skin is sensitive to the ingredients in these products. Kojiglow Forte cream contains Kojic acid, Arbutin, and Vitamin C which are commonly used to treat hyperpigmentation and dark spots on the skin. If you continue to experience itching, burning, extreme dryness, or any other discomfort, I recommend stopping the use of all products and consulting with your dermatologist for further evaluation and management.
