View allI've started noticing some white patches on my hip area and they're a bit irritated. I'm worried it might be some kind of fungal infection, but the rest of my body seems fine, no allergy or anything. Also, I'm concerned about preventing any darkening in that area. Could you give me some advice on what might be causing this and how to deal with it?
Based on your description of white patches with slight irritation on your hip area, it does sound like a fungal infection, such as Tinea versicolor. To treat this, you can use an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole 1% cream. Apply a thin layer of the cream on the affected area twice a day for about 2-4 weeks. Additionally, to prevent darkening of the hip area, it's important to keep the area clean and dry, wear loose-fitting clothing, and avoid excessive sweating. You can also use a skin lightening cream containing hydroquinone under the guidance of a dermatologist to help with any darkening that may occur. Remember to consult with a healthcare professional before starting any new treatment.

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've been struggling with dark circles under my eyes for about 7 to 8 years now, and I'm really looking for some advice on how to get rid of them. Could you suggest any effective ways or treatments?
Dark circles under the eyes can be caused by various factors such as lack of sleep, stress, allergies, or genetics. To help reduce dark circles, you can try using an over-the-counter cream containing hydroquinone or kojic acid to lighten the skin. Additionally, make sure to get an adequate amount of sleep, stay hydrated, and protect your skin from sun exposure by using sunscreen. You can also try placing cold compresses or cucumber slices on your eyes to reduce puffiness. If these measures do not improve your dark circles, you may consider consulting a dermatologist for further evaluation and treatment.
