I got my nose pierced at the beginning of February. About two weeks later, I switched to a diamond stud and noticed there was still a bit of pain. Then a week after that, I noticed a bump forming where the piercing is, and it hasn't gone away since. I've tried all kinds of home remedies like saltwater soaks and applying various oils, which seem to reduce the bump sometimes, but it always comes back. Could you give me some advice on what might be causing this and what I can do about it?

I'm 22 and I'm a bit curious about something. So, about a year ago, I saw a dermatologist and he suggested I use Morr F 5 Percent. I noticed some hair growth after two months, but then I stopped using it. Now, I've started using it again for the past 15 days. Do you think it'll help regrow the hair that I saw come from the first time I used minoxidil? Could I expect to see any results again this time around?

Yes you can use it also consume protien rich diet for healthy growth and maintain healthy lifestyle

I'm really concerned about why my face is noticeably darker than the rest of my fair-skinned body. Could sun damage be the cause, and if so, is there a way to lighten my face back to match my body color? I've tried Cosmelan Treatment a couple of years ago, and it helped at first, but now my face is dark again. What can I do about this?

Use SPF 30 sunscreen on all exposed parts of the skin. Use dermal skin peels and dermatologist recommended skin lightening agents. Get evaluated by a qualified dermatologist to rule out other causes of pigmentation and need for chemical peels or micro dermabrasion. Maintain a healthy diet containing lots of Vitamin C and green leafy vegetables. Accompany this with about 150 minutes of physical activity each week.

I'm getting a little concerned about some lumps I discovered on my back above my waist. They've been there for about 3 years now. I spoke to a doctor earlier, and they thought they were just fat lumps, but I'm starting to worry. Could these lumps be something more serious like cancer, or might they cause other problems for me down the line?

it not be a cancer
