I'm dealing with some dark spots on my face, and my dermatologist recommended glycolic acid for it. But now, every time I apply the cream, my face feels a bit itchy. Should I be worried and stop using it, or is that normal?

View allI tried using veet cold wax strips on my upper lip for hair removal, and after a couple of tries, it left my skin with a rash and this burning sensation. Now I have these scars and it just keeps burning. Any advice on what to do next?
After experiencing a rash, burning sensation, and scarring from using Veet Cold Wax Strips on your upper lip, apply a soothing topical cream like aloe vera gel, hydrocortisone cream, or calamine lotion to calm the skin, and avoid using wax strips for a while, considering alternative hair removal methods like threading or sugaring.

I've been dealing with an itchy butt for nearly 2 months now. There are a few spots that look like bug bites and they hurt and feel like pimples. I also noticed in the inner corner of my anal area, there's something that resembles psoriasisit's scaly, itches, and peels sometimes. The scarring is pretty bad, and I'm feeling self-conscious about wearing a bathing suit since the scars are visible all over my butt. My sister seems to have a similar issue but without the bug bites. We initially thought it might be the vaginal wash we were using, but even after stopping, these issues persist. I have a dog that sleeps with me under the covers, but she's on flea medicine. She also sleeps with my brother, who doesn't have any of these symptoms. Could this be something like scabies, spider bites, flea bites, or even mange? What can I do to soothe the itching and help with the scarring? Are there any over-the-counter meds or natural remedies you'd recommend?
it may b scabies use permithrin lotion and levocetrzine tab at night times

I'm dealing with a penile yeast infection that's been lingering for about a month. I saw a skin doctor who prescribed itraconazole capsules and propyzone nf cream initially, then ibisert cream afterward. Even after finishing the medication, I'm still experiencing itching inside the head and neck of my penis, which can be quite embarrassing, though there's no visible fungus anymore. Can you offer any advice on how I might be able to fully get rid of this?
