I'm noticing some fat under my arms, and it's really noticeable and kind of bulging out. I'm not sure who to see about this. Should I be consulting a gynecologist or a dermatologist? What do you think?

To address this issue, you can consider using a topical fat reduction cream containing L-Carnitine. Apply the cream to the affected area twice a day for best results. Additionally, incorporating exercises targeting the underarm area, such as tricep dips and push-ups, can help tone and reduce fat in that area. Remember to maintain a healthy diet and stay hydrated to support your overall weight loss goals. If you have any underlying medical conditions or concerns, it's always best to consult with a healthcare professional for personalized advice.

I'm really curious about whether curry leaf powder can actually help with hair fall and promote hair regrowth. I've heard it's similar to curry leaf lime tea, but does it really work? Can you share any insights or experiences with it?

I'm dealing with a really painful issue where the skin has torn on the upper middle part of my buttocks, close to the tailbone. It hurts quite a bit, and I'm uncertain about what it might be. Could you help me understand what's going on?

Could be due to a condition called a pilonidal cyst. This can cause pain and discomfort in the area. I recommend keeping the area clean and dry to prevent infection. You can apply an over-the-counter antibiotic ointment like Neosporin twice a day to help with healing. Additionally, taking a pain reliever like ibuprofen can help with the pain. If the pain persists or if there are signs of infection such as increased redness, swelling, or drainage of pus, please consult a doctor for further evaluation and treatment.

I've got this really frustrating red rash on my thigh near the private area. I tried using Miconazole nitrate with fluocinolone acetonide cream, but it doesn't seem to be helping at all. The first time I had this rash, I used dermi ford cream, and it cleared up, but now the rash has come back. Any idea what I should do next?
