I'm noticing some dark spots on the back of my neck, thighs, and waist, and my underarms have become darker too. A skin doctor once mentioned it might be related to insulin resistance. Could that be true, and what steps should I take to figure this out?

I'm dealing with these dark black marks on my face and skin, and it's been really frustrating. I've already seen a dermatologist, and they prescribed Cap Rinifol and Terramycin. Do you think these will help with my situation? Are there other treatments I should consider to get rid of these marks?

I've been using Podowart paint to treat the warts on my face, and while the warts are gone, my skin turned black and looks like it's burned. Is this a normal reaction, or should I be concerned? What can I do to help my skin heal properly?

I'm experiencing this weird internal itch in my fingertips every morning during the winter. It's like scratching doesn't cut it, and I've found that warming them up in my armpits helps, but it's just a temporary fix. Is there a long-term solution or something I can do to get rid of this itchiness for good?

You may be experiencing symptoms of dry skin in the winter season. To help alleviate the itching in your fingertips, I recommend using a moisturizing cream or ointment regularly, especially after washing your hands. You can try using a product like Eucerin Advanced Repair Hand Cream or Aveeno Skin Relief Hand Cream. Additionally, wearing gloves when going outside in the cold weather can help protect your skin and prevent further dryness. If the itching persists, you can also try taking an over-the-counter antihistamine Claritin to help reduce the itchiness.
