I had some fish earlier and then drank buttermilk about an hour later. Now, my dad mentioned that combining the two might lead to skin issues. I'm kind of worried since I already had the buttermilk. Is there something I can do to prevent any skin problems, or is there anything I should be on the lookout for?

There is no scientific evidence to suggest that simultaneous intake of milk and fish is harmful to the body or skin in any way.

I'm really worried about the dark, thick skin on my knees caused by Acanthosis nigricans. Are there any effective home remedies or natural ways to lighten this darkness and reduce the thickness of the skin? I'm a bit self-conscious about it and hoping for some guidance on what I can do at home.

For Acanthosis nigricans, it is important to address the underlying cause, such as obesity or insulin resistance. In addition to medical treatment, you can try using over-the-counter creams containing ingredients like retinoids or alpha hydroxy acids to help lighten the darkened skin. Moisturizing regularly can also help improve the appearance of the affected areas. To address the thickened skin in Acanthosis nigricans on the knees, you can try using a keratolytic cream containing ingredients like salicylic acid or urea to help soften and exfoliate the skin. Regular exfoliation and moisturizing can also help improve the texture of the skin on the knees.
