I'm noticing these white patches on my face for the first time, and I'm not sure what's causing them. I talked to a local doctor, but it didn't really help. Can you give me some guidance on what might be going on or what I should do next? I'm starting to get a little worried.

I have a pyogenic granuloma on my scalp and I'm really worried about it. Can this be treated without surgery? Also, is there any chance this could be a type of cancer? I'd really appreciate some clarity on this.

A pyogenic granuloma may not be harmful, but it can certainly disrupt daily life‚Äîespecially if it bleeds frequently or is in a tricky location. Fortunately, there are effective treatments available, and with the right care, healing is usually straightforward.

I'm really worried because I've been dealing with rashes on my thighs and scrotum for a month now, and more recently there's this intense burning sensation on my scrotum. What could be causing this, and how can I get some relief?

You can use an antifungal cream such as Clotrimazole 1% cream. Apply a thin layer of the cream to the affected areas twice a day for 2-4 weeks. Additionally, keeping the area clean and dry, wearing loose-fitting clothing, and avoiding scratching the area can help with healing.

I'm thinking about getting my bindi tattoo removed and I'm really curious about how much it might cost. Could you walk me through the process? I'm also a bit worried about how painful it might be. Can you give me some details about that?
