I'm an 18-year-old female and I've been dealing with really hot feet for as long as I can remember. It doesn't hurt, they just feel really warm all the time, which makes it hard for me to get comfortable or even wear shoes sometimes, especially when I'm trying to sleep. Do you have any idea why this is happening or any advice on how to cool them down?

View allI'm noticing that the skin on my face is unevenly toned. The area from my forehead to my nose is fair, but everything below my nose is darker. What could be causing this, and is there a treatment that can help even out my skin tone?
This condition is known as hyperpigmentation, where certain areas of the skin produce more melanin, leading to darker patches. To treat this, you can use a skin lightening cream containing hydroquinone or kojic acid. Apply a thin layer on the dark areas once daily, preferably at night. Additionally, using a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher every day can help prevent further darkening of the skin.

Instead of getting better, it's spreading more. I'm kind of lost hereany advice on what I should do next?

I'm a 29-year-old guy, and my doctor gave me Alaspan tablets for my dry and itchy skin because it's apparently some allergy issue. I noticed that Algo tablets have the same stuff in them but they're cheaper. Do you think it's okay for me to switch to Algo? Also, are there any other cheaper options you could recommend besides Alaspan?
If algo is working for you, you can use it as both are same .
