I'm curious about whether salt water can actually affect my skin color or hair. I've heard that salt in water might turn your skin black or cause grey hair. Since most underground water seems to have salt, should I be worried about any changes in my skin pigment or hair color? Is it true that salt water isn't good for the skin? I'd really appreciate any advice you could give!

View allCould you tell me whether I should consult a dermatologist or an eye specialist for treating Xanthelasma? I'm also looking for recommendations on the best doctor in Kolkata for this condition. Any advice would be appreciated!
Xanthelasma is a skin condition that appears on the eyelids and is usually treated by a dermatologist. In some cases, an ophthalmologist may also be involved, especially if the xanthelasma is affecting the eye itself.

I've been having this issue with recurring boils on my legs that seems to come and go. They always start as these tender red spots, and then they get hard and firm. Eventually, they become these abscesses filled with pus. This has been happening for about a year now. I've seen a physician for it and tried some antibiotics, but I'm still struggling with this. What could be causing these to keep coming back, and is there anything else I should be doing or asking my doctor about?

I'm waking up every morning with this itchy feeling all over my body, and I'm even getting mild hives. It's really strange because I've never had any skin allergies before, so I'm curious about what could be causing this. It's pretty frustrating, and I'm starting to worry. Can you tell me what's going on and what might help?
The itchy skin and mild hives, particularly in the morning, could be due to dry skin, environmental factors, stress, hormonal changes, or skin conditions like eczema or urticaria, so consult a dermatologist to determine the underlying cause and develop a treatment plan.
