I'm really concerned about these dark circles under my eyes. Is it safe to use mometasone cream for them? I heard about something called MMS cream, any idea what brand that is? And, by the way, are there any potential side effects I should worry about?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Avoid using Mometasone cream (brand names: MMS Cream, Elocon, Momate) for dark circles under the eyes, as it can cause side effects like skin thinning, glaucoma, cataract formation, rosacea-like symptoms, and dependence, instead consider alternative eye creams or consult a dermatologist.

I've been dealing with eczema on my right leg since 2011, and it's been really frustrating. It itches all the time and the scratching has left these dark, patchy marks that just won't go away. It's dry eczema, and as far as I know, I'm not allergic to anything, so I'm really puzzled about what's causing it. It's only on my leg, and steroids and moisturizers haven't been helping at all. What can I do to cure it?

I'm 19 and starting to notice a lot of white hairs already, which is kind of worrying. Someone suggested I try dex orange syrup to help with it. I'm really curious if that's effective or if there's something else I should consider. What do you think?
Dex Orange syrup is a multivitamin supplement that contains essential vitamins and minerals like Vitamin C, Vitamin B12, Folic Acid, Biotin, and Zinc. While it can help improve overall hair health and prevent premature graying to some extent, it may not specifically target or reduce white hair. It is important to maintain a balanced diet rich in nutrients for overall hair health. The recommended dosage of Dex Orange syrup is usually 10ml once a day.
