I'm 11 and I've had chicken pox, and since then I've noticed some moles on my face that just won't go away. Also, I've been dealing with acne, mostly on my forehead and chin. Could you give me some advice on how to get rid of these moles and what to do about the acne issue?

There is no relation between chicken pox and moles. Acne is a common problem in your age group. Do not pop out your acne as they will leave scars. Avoid using hair oil as this can aggravate your acne on forehead.

View allI'm really worried because after I stopped using this cream that I had been applying for a year, my skin's condition has worsened. It's become darker, and I'm dealing with acne and pigmentation, especially around my mouth. Do you think visiting a dermatologist can help me get my skin back to normal and possibly improve my complexion?
I understand your concern about your skin damage after stopping the cream. Damage Reversal and Skin Improvement 1. Consult a dermatologist: Schedule an appointment to discuss your skin concerns and determine the best course of treatment. 2. Skin analysis: A dermatologist will analyze your skin to identify underlying issues, such as acne, hyperpigmentation, or skin texture. 3. Personalized treatment plan: Based on the analysis, the dermatologist will create a customized treatment plan to address your specific skin concerns. Treatment Options 1. Topical treatments: Creams, serums, or gels containing ingredients like retinoids, vitamin C, or niacinamide can help improve skin texture, reduce acne, and fade hyperpigmentation. 2. Chemical peels: A solution is applied to remove the top layers of skin, revealing smoother skin and reducing hyperpigmentation. 3. Microdermabrasion or microneedling: Non-invasive exfoliating treatments that help improve skin texture, reduce fine lines, and promote collagen production. 4. Laser therapy: Targets specific skin concerns like hyperpigmentation, acne, or skin texture. Fairness and Skin Brightening 1. Skin brightening treatments: Chemical peels, microdermabrasion, or laser therapy can help reduce hyperpigmentation and brighten the skin. 2. Topical skin brighteners: Creams or serums containing ingredients like vitamin C, niacinamide, or licorice extract can help fade hyperpigmentation and even out skin tone. Patience and Realistic Expectations 1. Treatment duration: Depending on the treatment plan, it may take several months to a year or more to see noticeable improvements.

I've been applying dermadew cream for my facial acne, but now I'm having some bowel discomfort and there's a bit of itching or a burning feeling on my face. Could this be because of the cream? Do you know of any alternative medicine I could try? I'm a 30-year-old guy.
It's a good idea to discontinue Dermadew temporarily to see if the symptoms improve. If your acne persists, you may want to explore other treatment options or consult with a dermatologist for a personalized skincare routine. As for the bowel discomfort, its important to consider other factors (diet, stress, etc.) that might be contributing to that.

I'm really worried because I've been dealing with rashes on my thighs and scrotum for a month now, and more recently there's this intense burning sensation on my scrotum. What could be causing this, and how can I get some relief?
You can use an antifungal cream such as Clotrimazole 1% cream. Apply a thin layer of the cream to the affected areas twice a day for 2-4 weeks. Additionally, keeping the area clean and dry, wearing loose-fitting clothing, and avoiding scratching the area can help with healing.
