I'm getting these red, mosquito-bite-like spots that itch a lot, and every day a new one seems to pop up. After a couple of days, they turn into dark spots. What could be causing this, and should I be concerned?

This could be fungal infection u need to evaluate with your Dermatologist and get appropriate treatment with oral antifungal medications and topical lotions,once the infection is resolved your hair fall would come down,I suggest you not to use minoxidil with active fungal infection,above this your personal hygiene care is more important.

View allI'm using Skinlite cream, and its made my skin a lot fairer, but whenever I stop using it, my skin turns darker again. I've been seeing a doctor for about six months now, but my skin hasn't improved. My face is still darker, and I really dont know what to do next. Can you recommend any effective skin lightening creams or treatments? I'm getting really worried.

I'm really concerned about my wife's skin. Before we got married, she had such clear skin, but just a month after the wedding, she started breaking out with acne. It's gotten so bad that it's really affecting her mood, making her feel depressed. We've already seen a couple of dermatologists, but nothing seems to help. We even went to a gynecologist, and they mentioned it might be due to hormonal imbalance. We're feeling pretty lost right now. Any advice on what we could do next?
The treatment of acne differs according to the grade of involvement. Some people have more oilyness on the face which results in breakouts. After completing treatment for controlling the active breakouts, tablets can be stopped and creams need to be continued to prevent recurrence. Diet and lifestyle modifications are also important. Please don't do any self treatment such as over the counter Steroid creams. Don't burst the pimples with your fingers as it can result in ugly scars. The marks and pores left behind after the pimples heal can also be treated
