I'm 16 and I've got these stretch mark-like lines on my knees. They're bothering me a lot, and I'm really hoping you might have some advice. Are there any home remedies that actually work to help with this? I don't want to use any medications or creams. Could you please guide me?

View allI've noticed these white patches in the corners of my lips for about a year now. They don't hurt, but it seems like the whiteness is spreading. I'm really starting to wonder what's causing this. Any ideas?
May be due to a condition called oral thrush, which is a fungal infection caused by Candida albicans. I recommend using an antifungal medication such as clotrimazole. Additionally, maintaining good oral hygiene and avoiding sugary foods can help prevent the infection from worsening.

I've been using Melas cream for over a month, but I recently stopped because my skin keeps peeling. I'm really worried about how to get my skin back to normal. Do you have any recommendation on which cream might help with the recovery?
After stopping the use of Melas, it is important to allow your skin to recover. You can use a gentle moisturizing cream containing ingredients like aloe vera or hyaluronic acid to help soothe and hydrate your skin. Additionally, you can use a mild steroid cream like hydrocortisone 1% to reduce inflammation and promote healing. Make sure to apply these creams as directed by the manufacturer or your healthcare provider. It is also important to protect your skin from further damage by avoiding sun exposure and using a broad-spectrum sunscreen.

I've noticed a discolored spot on my lower lip where my teeth usually bite it. Do you think this could be vitiligo, or is it just because of the biting? I'm a bit worried and not sure what to make of it.
