I'm concerned about using Placentrex gel on my baby's hand burn. He's just 1 and a half years old. Are there any side effects I need to be aware of?

Question

I've been dealing with these little red spots on my back and neck for about a week now. They were super itchy when they first appeared last Saturday but arent itching anymore. However, they havent gone away, and I havent taken any medication. I'm really unsure about whats going on or what I should do next. Any insights?

Question

I'm dealing with jock itch, and it's made the skin on my inner thighs darker. I'm concerned about getting my natural skin tone back and was wondering if there's a specific cream for this. Is using something like Kojic acid cream effective for both treating the itch and lightening the skin, or should I be looking for something else? Any advice would be really helpful!

Question

I'm starting to eat more dry fruits like figs, apricots, and almonds. But I'm a bit worried they might cause acne. I know everyone says theyre healthy, but I have sensitive skin, and I'm not sure if these can trigger breakouts. Have you seen this happen before? Should I be cautious with certain types like black raisins or walnuts?
