I'm dealing with oily and acne-prone skinwhat I can use Venusia cream as a moisturizer? I'm really worried about whether it might block my pores and lead to more acne. What do you think?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Venusia cream is not specifically formulated for oily and acne-prone skin. It may be too heavy and could potentially clog pores, leading to more acne breakouts. I recommend using oil-free and non-comedogenic moisturizers like Cetaphil Oil Control Moisturizer. Apply a thin layer of moisturizer to clean skin twice a day for best results.

View allI've been noticing some white streaks on the sides of my face, right on the cheekbones. They're not really spots or patches, but they definitely look fairer compared to the rest of my skin. Any idea what might be causing this?
The white streaks on your cheekbones could be due to several reasons, including hypopigmentation, vitiligo, pityriasis alba, or idiopathic guttate hypomelanosis; so consult dermatologist

I'm dealing with an infection in my private area since last July. I've tried different treatments, but there's always a small patch that never fully heals, and then another one appears. I've used plenty of medicines and creams, but the issue just won't go away. Any advice on what I should do next?
When scheduled for a thyroid function test (TFT), it's recommended to withhold Thyronorm (levothyroxine) for 24-48 hours before the blood test. Taking Thyronorm on the day of the test may affect the accuracy of the results, particularly the TSH levels. Stop Thyronorm 24-48 hours prior to the test. Consult your doctor or endocrinologist for personalized advice. Follow instructions to ensure accurate test results. Reschedule the test if you've taken Thyronorm on the same day

I've been dealing with these weird spots on my legs and arms that break out and itch. I try not to scratch too much, and after the itching stops, I notice these purple dots that look kind of like hickeys. It's strange, but hopefully that's a good description. Then the area bruises and gets really tender. It usually clears up after a week or so. I'm wondering if you have any idea what this might be.
