I'm dealing with these boils that are filled with pus, and they keep coming back. I tried antibiotics to prevent them from returning, but it didn't work. What could be causing this recurring issue, and is there anything else I should consider doing to get rid of them for good?

I've got these hives, and I'm wondering what might happen if I don't treat them for a day. Is there a chance I could get sick or something?

That needs evaluation,visit dermatologist for the same

I'm thinking about getting a permanent laser fairness treatment for my whole body because I have a pretty typical Indian skin tone, not too dark or too light. I'm really curious about which treatment centers offer the best results, especially if they're in or around Pune, and how much it might cost. I have normal skin, not sensitive, and I'm also wondering what steps I should take to keep my skin complexion fair after the treatment. Any advice would be appreciated!

Visit Physician for evaluation and appropriate management

I've just used Veet hair removal cream, the sensitive kind, on my testicles for over 8 minutes. Now I'm feeling a burning sensation down there, and it's looking a bit red. I'm wondering, could this be a minor chemical burn? Should I go ahead and use Neosporin on it?
