I'm dealing with a persistent allergy to the parthenium plant, as indicated by my skin test report. Even though I've stayed away from these plants and there's none around my house, I'm still experiencing facial allergies. I've been using steroid creams and tablets, but the allergy keeps coming back once I stop them. Is there a tablet or an injection available that could help me manage this parthenium plant allergy more effectively? It's becoming quite frustrating.

I've been dealing with Melasma for about 45 years now, and it's really noticeable because of my fair skin. There are these dark patches on my cheekbones. I tried cosmo peel and laser treatments about two years ago, but they didn't help at all. A dermatologist suggested I use Triluma cream twice a week, so I've been trying it out for the past two weeks. My skin's started flaking and feels really dry, and whenever I put on my Neutrogena Ultra Sheer sunscreen, I get this burning, tingling sensation. Is this normal?

I'm looking for a way to get rid of the holes left on my face after acne, but I'm trying to avoid laser treatments since they seem to be making my skin more sensitive. Could you suggest any other treatments or remedies that might help?

Clinsol gel for local application is advised for 3-6 weeks.

I've recently discovered a lump under the skin on my mons pubis. It's not really painful at all, but it does hurt a bit when I touch it. Should I be concerned about this? What could it possibly be?

The lump you are describing could be a swollen lymph node, an ingrown hair, or a cyst. To help reduce any inflammation or pain, you can try using over-the-counter pain relievers like ibuprofen. If the lump persists or becomes more painful, it is important to have it evaluated by a healthcare professional for proper diagnosis and treatment.
