I'm noticing some dark brown discoloration around my groin area that's been there for about 4 to 5 years now, but it hasn't been itchy at all. I'm concerned about the causeis it possibly a bacterial or yeast infection, or something else? I'm really hoping for some advice on how to improve the color because it's quite noticeable, and also I'd like to address whatever might be causing it. Could you offer any guidance on this?

View allI've been dealing with some pretty bad acne and breakouts on my face, shoulders, and back since I had chickenpox about three years ago. Before that, I never really had any issues with acne, so I'm super frustrated. I went to a bunch of doctors and tried different creams and tablets, but nothing seems to work. It's been a few years now, and every time one breakout heals, another one pops up. Could this be connected to the way the chickenpox was treated back then, or is there something else going on? I'm really worried because my face is a mess right now and I'm not sure what else to do. Any advice or solutions for dealing with acne after chickenpox?

I'm asking for a friend who's naturally very dark-skinned due to her genes, and she's considering a melanin reduction procedure. I know this isn't super common in India, and there seems to be a lack of information about it. What are the risks and side effects she should be aware of, and how much does it typically cost? Also, what steps does she need to take to go through with this?

I've been dealing with a tinea infection recently and after consulting with my doctor, I took fluconazole tablets. While the infection is gone now, it's left me with these large black patches on my skin. Could you recommend a cream or treatment to help get my skin back to its original color?
Usually it takes time to heal and no need to worry or rush to change the treatment,have patience and give some times to heal, consume balanced diet and take adequate rest for better results.
