I'm noticing these fat balls in my body, especially around my stomach, hands, and thighs. They're quite small right now, but I'm not sure what to do about them. Who should I reach out to for advice, and what kind of treatment options should I consider?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
consult a general surgeon to evaluate the fat balls, likely lipomas, and discuss treatment options, which may include observation, surgical excision, or liposuction, depending on their size, location, and your overall health.

View allI've stopped using mometasone furoate cream for a week now, but I'm noticing these dark circle patches appearing on my skin. What can I do to get rid of these patches and clear up my skin?
You can try using a hydroquinone cream along with a good sunscreen to help lighten the dark patches on your skin. You can try using Melalite cream (hydroquinone) in the evening and applying a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher during the day. Make sure to apply the cream only on the dark patches and follow up with a moisturizer. Additionally, you can consider using a vitamin C serum to help brighten your skin. Remember to consult with a dermatologist before starting any new treatment.

I've got two corns right next to each other on my left index finger, and I've been using those salicylic acid corn caps to treat them, but they just keep coming back. What else can I try to finally get rid of them? Is there something I'm missing here, or maybe another treatment I should consider?

I've been dealing with chickenpox for about six days now, and I'm really trying to figure out the best way to take care of myself and recover. Are there specific foods I should avoid or things I shouldn't do while I'm going through this? I just want to make sure I'm doing everything right to feel better soon.
To care for chickenpox, follow these steps: stay hydrated with plenty of fluids, like water, clear soups, and electrolyte-rich drinks; eat a bland diet of foods like bananas, rice, applesauce, and toast (BRAT diet); avoid scratching, spicy, or acidic foods, and drinks like citrus juices or caffeinated beverages; take over-the-counter medications like acetaminophen for fever and pain, and antihistamines for itching; apply cool compresses or calamine lotion to soothe skin irritation; and get plenty of rest, while also maintaining good hygiene practices, like washing hands frequently, to prevent the spread of the virus
