I'm noticing these rashes popping up anywhere on my body, mainly in the morning and evening. Theyre itchy, red, and kind of rashy like pithi dafad, and they tend to disappear after a while. Should I be worried about this, or is it something common?

It seems like you are experiencing a skin condition called Urticaria, also known as Hives. This condition presents as raised, itchy rashes that come and go. To help relieve the itching and redness, you can take Cetirizine (brand name Zyrtec) 10mg once daily. Additionally, applying a soothing lotion like Calamine lotion on the affected areas can also provide relief. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it is advisable to consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and management.

I've been using Melamet cream for over a year and noticed good results, but I've recently seen some reviews saying it's actually not good for the skin. I've also heard that using hydroquinone doesn't cause any harm. I stopped using the cream about 10 days ago, and I haven't noticed any changes in my face yet. I'm worried though, is there a chance my skin might turn dark again? If that's possible, how can I keep the fair complexion I got from the cream? Would love some advice on this!

Melamet cream contains a combination of three active ingredients: Tretinoin, Hydroquinone, and Mometasone. Prolonged use of this cream can have side effects and may not be suitable for long-term use. Hydroquinone 2% is a safer alternative for skin lightening. To maintain the fairness on your face and prevent it from turning black again, you can consider using a sunscreen with a high SPF daily, along with a gentle cleanser and moisturizer suitable for your skin type. Additionally, you can use a skin lightening cream containing Hydroquinone 2% under the guidance of a dermatologist to help maintain the fairness of your skin.

I'm wondering why my palms and feet sometimes get really hot, even though I don't have any other issues. I don't have a burning or tingling sensation, and my body temperature is normal, but it's just that my palms and feet feel really hot at times. What could be causing this?

The intermittent hot palms and feet without any other symptoms or medical conditions could be attributed to various factors, including anxiety or stress, overactive thyroid (although you mentioned no medical conditions), hormonal fluctuations, poor circulation, or sympathetic nervous system response; to alleviate symptoms, try relaxation techniques like deep breathing, meditation, or yoga, wear breathable clothing and socks, and soak your hands and feet in cool water when they become hot, but if the issue persists, consult a healthcare professional to rule out any underlying conditions.

I'm really worried about my friend who keeps getting ringworm over and over. She gets better after treatment, but then a few months later, it pops up again. Is this something serious, or does it mean something else might be going on? The doctor mentioned coming back if it happens again, do you think she should make another appointment? What steps should she take to finally get rid of it for good?
