I'm noticing these flat red spots on my hands, arms, and feet for the past month. They don't itch or hurt, but I'm a bit worried about what they could be. Can you help me figure out what's going on?

These red spots could be a sign of a condition called petechiae, which are small, flat red spots that appear on the skin due to bleeding under the skin. It is important to consult a doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment. In the meantime, you can take Vitamin C supplements to help strengthen your blood vessels.

View allI'm a 28-year-old male and I've got a fungal infection in my genital area. I've been using Onabet cream, which has Sertaconazole Nitrate in it. I've heard that nitrogen compounds can be harmful to the skin because they can break it down. Since Onabet contains a nitrate compound, I'm worried if it's actually safe to use it in such a sensitive area. Should I keep using Onabet for my condition? I'm really in need of some advice.
Continue all the medications as advised by the dermatologist.

I'm 23 and I've been using Yugard anti-aging cream for a couple of months because a doctor recommended it to me. I'm a bit worried about any potential side effects at my age. Should I be concerned?
Yugard anti-aging cream contains Tretinoin which may cause skin irritation, redness, dryness, and peeling especially when starting its use. It is important to use a sunscreen during the day while using this cream. The recommended dosage for Yugard cream is to apply a pea-sized amount on the affected area at night before bedtime.
