I'm dealing with a burn and wondering if it's better to use gels or ointments. Do either of them really help with healing? And if so, what specific kind should I go for?

View allI've noticed these brown scars under both of my arms for over two months now. I'm 42 and they don't itch or hurt, but I'm wondering what might be going on. Should I be worried about these scars?
You may be dealing with post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, which can occur after skin trauma or inflammation. To help lighten the brown scars, you can try using a topical cream containing hydroquinone, such as Melalite cream, twice daily on the affected areas. Additionally, applying sunscreen with a high SPF daily can prevent further darkening of the scars. If the scars do not improve with these measures, you may consider consulting a dermatologist for further evaluation and treatment options.
