I'm looking for a way to get rid of the holes left on my face after acne, but I'm trying to avoid laser treatments since they seem to be making my skin more sensitive. Could you suggest any other treatments or remedies that might help?

View allI've had these white bumps on my skin and hands for months, and now they're showing up on my face too. No matter what I do, they just don't go away. Even if I scratch them off with my nails, they seem to always come back. What's going on, and how can I get rid of them for good?
Could be a sign of a skin condition called Molluscum Contagiosum. This is a viral infection that can spread through direct skin contact. I recommend using a topical treatment like Retin-A (tretinoin) cream to help treat the bumps. Apply a thin layer of Retin-A cream on the affected areas once daily at bedtime. It may take a few weeks to see improvement, so be patient with the treatment. Additionally, avoid scratching or picking at the bumps to prevent further spread of the infection. Keep the affected areas clean and dry to promote healing. If the condition persists or worsens, consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and management.

I've been having a really tough time with what I think is ringworm around my anus. They've got those classic round ring-like patterns, and it's been going on for around 2 months now. I've been using Terbinaforce cream and Kencel IT 100 tablets, but they haven't done much to help. The itching is so intense, and sometimes I scratch so much that my skin actually gets cut. I'm really not sure what to do next and could use some guidance. What do you recommend?
Candid cream for local application is advised for 3 weeks, along with tab flucanozole 150 mg once a week for 2 weeks is advised to the patient.

I'm really worried about my sister's skin. She's got a naturally dusky tone, but her job in sales means she's out in the field a lot, and it's made her skin even darker. I think it's because of increased melanin from all that sun exposure. Can you recommend any remedies to reduce the tanning and help get her skin back to its original color?
kindly consult dermatologist.
