I'm a bit worried about a sebaceous cyst I had on my right arm a while back. I squeezed it a couple of times and now it's turned into this black hole, like there's a hole there and it's just black inside. The lump is gone and there's no swelling, but this black hole has been there for months and hasn't closed up. I'm attaching some pictures for reference. Is this something serious or should I be concerned about it?

View allI'm a 35-year-old woman and I'm wondering if Dermadew cream can be used as an anti-aging treatment. Is it safe and does it actually work for that purpose?
Dermadew cream can be a good hydrating moisturizer, but for targeted anti-aging benefits, you might need a cream that contains other proven active ingredients such as retinol, vitamin C, or peptides. Always patch-test a product first and consider consulting a dermatologist

I'm really concerned about these red rings that keep appearing under my thighs. They seem to go away when I use the cream, but as soon as I stop, they come back. Occasionally, I also feel some itching on my lower back and under my hips. The only thing that seems to be working is Dermiford. Other creams didn't have any effect, but the Doxypal DR is showing some results too. Could you help me understand what's going on and how to get rid of this problem?
The recurring red rings under your thighs, accompanied by occasional itching on your lower back and under hips, may indicate a fungal infection, such as ringworm or candidiasis; the effectiveness of Dermiford and Doxypal DR creams suggests a fungal or bacterial origin; consider consulting a dermatologist to confirm the diagnosis and recommend a comprehensive treatment plan, which may include antifungal or antibacterial medications, in addition to topical cream

I've been dealing with exfoliative cheilitis for around 6 years now, ever since I started taking some antibiotics, and it's been really tough. My lips get all flaky and dry, and the skin turns white when it hits water. There's even this white vermilion line forming where my lips touch. I'm really curious if there's any kind of treatment that can help with this. Any advice would be great!
