I'm feeling kind of worried. My hands and feet have been getting really warm, almost hot, but the rest of my body temperature seems normal. I don't have a fever or anything like that, but it's just strange that only those areas are feeling warm. Should I be concerned about this? What could be causing it?

blood tests (for thyroid function, vitamin levels, glucose levels) Nerve conduction studies (to check for neuropathy) Circulatory tests (like an ankle-brachial index test or Doppler ultrasound) Electrolyte levels (to rule out imbalances)

View allI've been on Perfectil for a couple of months now as part of my PRP treatment for thinning hair. I think it's helping, but I've suddenly gotten a lot of acne, which I've never had before. Could Perfectil be causing this, and should I keep taking it? What would you advise?
Continue same treatment.

I'm noticing a thin black line on the nail of my right thumb, and it seems to be permanent. It's been there for a while, grows with the nail, and isn't just a stain or mark that can be washed off. I recently came across some information online suggesting it might be a sign of melanoma, which is a bit worrying. I'm aware that online info can sometimes be exaggerated, but I want to be sure there's nothing serious going on. Could this be a cause for concern?
Probable diagnosis is psoriasis,eczema,hypothyroidism,injury,rheumatoid arhritis, melanonychia,Hiv,cancer and anemia etc. vit b12 deficiency .Most causes of black lines do not require treatment..Melanoma is a exception.Treatment of the underlying cause .

I accidentally brushed my leg against my bike's engine and the skin has turned white. It's not too painful, but I'm a little worried since it's a bit unusual. Is this something I should be concerned about, or will it heal on its own?
Minor burns from touching a bike engine can cause white discoloration. Follow these steps: Immediate Care 1. Run cool tap water over the affected area for 10-15 minutes to reduce temperature. 2. Apply a topical antibiotic ointment (e.g., Neosporin or Bacitracin). 3. Cover with a non-stick, sterile bandage. Aftercare 1. Keep the area clean and dry. 2. Apply ointment 2-3 times a day. 3. Monitor for signs of infection (redness, swelling, increased pain). 4. Avoid breaking blisters or scratchin
