Question

I'm 25 and I've noticed these two yellowish deposits near my right eye. I'm pretty sure they're called xanthelasma. I'm a bit worried and just want to know what these are exactly and how I might be able to get rid of them. Are there any effective treatments or procedures I should consider? Any advice would really help!

Xanthelasma can be treated with the help of topical medications containing trichloroacetic acid or chemical peels. In some cases, cryotherapy or laser therapy may be recommended to remove the deposits. It is important to consult a dermatologist for proper evaluation and treatment.

Question

I'm concerned about this connection between vitamin D deficiency and seborrheic dermatitis. My vitamin D levels are at 10.53, which seems low, and I have seborrheic dermatitis. My doctor mentioned there's no link, but I read somewhere that vitamin D deficiency might cause seborrheic dermatitis. I'm confused and would appreciate some clarity on whether there's any real connection or if it's just a coincidence. Could my low vitamin D be affecting my skin condition in some way?

I've been noticing something that feels like veins on the bottom of my right testicle, and I'm wondering if it could just be the epididymis I'm feeling. Should I be concerned or is this something normal?

Question

I'm thinking about trying a chemical peel on my face, but I'm a little worried. Could it affect my facial hair, like maybe stop it from growing or something?
