Question 1

I've been dealing with this ailawart on my arm for a while now, and it just won't go away. I'm starting to notice more of them popping up on my face too. Any idea on how I can get rid of these?

Accepted Answer

Warts are caused by a viral infection in the skin. For treating warts, you can use over-the-counter medications containing Salicylic Acid, such as Compound W or Dr. Scholl's Clear Away. Apply the medication directly to the wart daily. Additionally, you can try cryotherapy with products like Dr. Scholl's Freeze Away Wart Remover. If the warts do not improve with over-the-counter treatments, you may need to see a dermatologist for further evaluation and treatment.

Question 2

I'm worried because I've noticed these black lines under my nails that run from the tip to the end. I heard it could be a type of skin cancer. If I decide to get it removed, will that treat it? I'm also curious about my chances of recovery. The lines are not very dark, more like a light black. How much would a nail biopsy typically cost, and are there any foods I should steer clear of? What might be causing these lines, and what's the best way for me to go about getting treatment?

Accepted Answer

Don't worry, having black lines beneath your nails doesn't necessarily mean you have skin cancer. In Indians and people with darker skin tones, these lines are quite common and usually harmless . However, it's always best to get a professional opinion to rule out any underlying conditions.

Question 3

My skin just keeps getting darker lately and I'm really starting to worry. I've been trying a bunch of things like blood purifying medicines, loads of cosmetics, drinking a ton of water, and staying out of the sun and heat, but nothing seems to work. It's getting pretty frustrating because I just want my natural complexion back. Could you suggest something that actually helps?
