I'm noticing these two long, red, thick lines forming on my stomach and one on my left upper arm. They're getting more pronounced and resemble a scar, almost like someone cut me with a knife. I'm really puzzled because they don't look like stretch marks to me. Can you help me figure out what kind of skin issue this might be?

View allI've got this annoying cystic acne on one of my buttocks, and it's super painful and inflamed. In the past, I've had cystic acne on my cheek and chest, and my doctor recommended Nadoxin, which worked back then. But now, using Nadoxin on this one doesn't seem to do the trick. Should I stick with Nadoxin, or do I need to try something else?
Considering the severity of your cystic acne on your buttock, it may be beneficial to switch to a more potent medication. I recommend stopping the use of Nadoxin and consulting with your doctor for a prescription of a stronger topical antibiotic like Duac gel. Additionally, an oral antibiotic like Doxycycline may be necessary to help reduce inflammation and control the infection. Make sure to follow your doctor's instructions for proper dosage and duration of treatment.

Mujhe 2 saal ho gaye skinlite cream ke side effects se paresan hun. Mere face par bilkul glow nahi ho raha. Maine doctor ko dikhaya, unhone mujhe bahut saari creams aur vitamins diye, lekin ab tak kuch asar nahi dikha. Aap mujhe bata sakte hain ki main aur kya kar sakti hu?
Skinlite cream ke long-term use ke karan pigmentation ke changes ho sakte hain, jo aapki twacha par glow khone ka karan ban sakte hain. Aapka treatment chal raha hai aur yeh samajhne ki koshish ho rahi hain ki aapko aur asar kaise mil sakta hai. Aayein kuch suggestions dekhein jo madadgar ho sakte hain: Sun Protection: Sunscreen ka istemal zaroori hai, jo aapki skin ko UV radiation se protect karega aur pigmentation ko aur badhne se rokega. SPF 30 ya usse zyada wala sunscreen din mein lagana chahiye. Gentle Skincare Routine: Cleansing: Gentle, sulfate-free cleanser ka istemal karein jo aapki twacha ko rough ya dry nahi kare. Moisturizer: Twacha ko achi tarah se moisturize karna mahatvapurn hai. Non-comedogenic moisturizer use karein jo aapki twacha ke doosh ko band na kare. Hydration and Nutrition: Pani peena: Rozana khoob pani piyein. Yeh aapki skin ko naturally hydrate aur rejuvenate karne mein madad karta hai. Balanced Diet: Antioxidant-rich foods jaise ki fruits (berries, oranges) aur vegetables (spinach, broccoli) se nutritionally balanced khana khayein. Regular Exfoliation: Mahine me ek ya do baar gentle exfoliation se dead skin cells ko hatayein. Isse nayi aur healthy skin surface par aa sakti hai. Rest and Stress Management: Achha neend: Kam se kam 7-8 ghante soyein taki twacha naturally repair ho sake. Stress management techniques: Meditation aur yoga jaise techniques se stress ko kam karein, jo glow aur twacha ki overall health ko behtar karega. Follow-up with Dermatologist: Aapka doctor kisi new treatment plan ke liye dermatologist ke consultation ki salah de sakta hai.

I've been told to try Dermadew soap for improving my skin tone, but I'm 19 and have really sensitive skin. Is this the right choice for me, or should I consider other options?
Dermadew soap can help with hydration and mild skin brightening, but for sensitive skin, it's essential to do a patch test first to avoid irritation. Gentle products with calming ingredients like aloe vera or oatmeal might suit you better. Avoid harsh soaps and focus on sunscreen, as sun protection is crucial for even skin tone and sensitivity management.
