I'm really concerned about a new mole I found behind my left ear. I saw a dermatologist and she told me its not cancerous, thankfully. She gave me a mole removal cream, and I've been using it for a few days now. It looks like it's getting smaller, which is a relief, but it barely itches. Im still worried if there's any risk of cancer. Also, if it completely fades away, should I still be worried down the line?

My 6-year-old has been dealing with this reddish allergy around the mouth for a week now. I started using Pecef Duo 50 oral suspension and Allegra Fexofenadine hydrochloride suspension. Is this the right approach, or should we be trying something else? I'm pretty worried and curious about what's causing it and how best to help my child. Any advice on this would be really appreciated!

I've been noticing these purple spots on my toes for about six months now, and it's starting to worry me because they're getting bigger and even spreading to another toe. They began as a small dot but have gradually grown over time. I'm really uncertain about what to do since I don't have insurance. Any advice on how to handle this?
