I'm experiencing this really uncomfortable feeling in winter, almost like needles are poking out of my skin from the inside, and its really intense. It usually happens when I'm out in the sun or doing any physical activity. The only thing that slightly helps is taking off my clothes and coming into contact with something cold or scratching really hard all over. But now, even just being outside for a little while triggers this sensation, and it's getting harder to handle in front of others. It's really impacting my life and work. I've noticed red patches appear where I feel the needle-poking sensation, which is worrying me a lot. I've been bathing with cold water to try and lessen how often it happens, but I'm really looking for a better and more long-term solution. Could you help me understand what's going on and advise on what I might do?

I've been dealing with this skin issue for a couple of years now. It first showed up at the Thai and now there's this constant khujli affecting my entire body. A year ago, it seemed like things were finally getting better, almost like I was in the clear for good. But recently, it's come back with a vengeance and feels worse than ever. What kind of medicine should I be looking into? Are there specific things I should be doing or avoiding to help with this?

I'm really concerned about why my face is noticeably darker than the rest of my fair-skinned body. Could sun damage be the cause, and if so, is there a way to lighten my face back to match my body color? I've tried Cosmelan Treatment a couple of years ago, and it helped at first, but now my face is dark again. What can I do about this?

Use SPF 30 sunscreen on all exposed parts of the skin. Use dermal skin peels and dermatologist recommended skin lightening agents. Get evaluated by a qualified dermatologist to rule out other causes of pigmentation and need for chemical peels or micro dermabrasion. Maintain a healthy diet containing lots of Vitamin C and green leafy vegetables. Accompany this with about 150 minutes of physical activity each week.

I've been using Memopi HC for around 6 years, and it's helped improve my complexion quite a bit. But when I stop using it, my whole face turns red. I'm worried and curious to find out if there's anything else I can try, maybe something more natural, to help with my complexion? What could be causing this redness, and how can I manage it?

Kozicare cream is advised.Side-effects include itching and hypersensitivity reactions
