View allI've had this lump for about a year now. It kind of popped up out of nowhere, and at first, it didn't hurt at all, so I just thought it might be a wart or something and ignored it. But lately, I've been noticing some pain when I press around the area. I spend a lot of time at my desk for work, and I'm wondering if it might be related to that. It's not a boil; it feels more like some kind of skin growth. Could it be connected to sitting for long periods, or should I be worried about something else?
It is important to have this lump evaluated by a healthcare professional to determine the exact cause. The sudden development of a painless lump that has now become painful could indicate various possibilities, including an abscess, cyst, lipoma, or even a more serious condition like a tumor. It is unlikely to be directly related to your desk job unless there is a specific injury or pressure point causing the issue.

I'm really hoping to find a good doctor who can help with treating vitiligo. I want to get rid of the symptoms quickly. Any recommendations or advice on how to find the best treatment options?
For the treatment of vitiligo and fast removal of symptoms, you can consider using a combination of topical corticosteroids like Clobetasol propionate cream along with calcineurin inhibitors such as Tacrolimus ointment. These medications can help to repigment the affected areas of the skin. Additionally, phototherapy with narrowband UVB or excimer laser can also be beneficial in treating vitiligo. It is important to consult a dermatologist for proper evaluation and management plan.

I've been dealing with this annoying itch on my right butt cheek. It's kind of embarrassing to see a doctor in person about it. Could you suggest an ointment or gel that might help me get rid of it?
I recommend using hydrocortisone cream 1% for the itching on your right butt cheek. Apply a thin layer of the cream to the affected area twice a day for up to 7 days. Make sure to wash your hands before and after applying the cream.
