I'm really concerned about these lines appearing near my shoulders and armpits on both sides. They've been there for almost a year and seem to be increasing over time. I'm worried because I don't know what they are or what's causing them. Can someone help me understand what this could be and suggest any remedies? I'd also like to know how I can prevent this from getting worse.

View allI've been using Pendram Plus for a while and now I've got these dark circles and my skin has turned really dark. I'm kind of worried about how I can fix this. Any suggestions on what to do?
Prolonged use of Pendram Plus, a topical corticosteroid cream, can lead to skin darkening and other side effects. To address these issues, follow these steps: Reversing Skin Darkening 1. Stop using Pendram Plus: Discontinue using the cream to prevent further skin darkening.Reducing Dark Circles 1. Eye creams: Use eye creams containing ingredients like: - Caffeine (reduces puffiness) - Peptides (stimulates collagen production) - Vitamin K (fades dark circles) 2. Cold compress: Apply a cold compress to the affected area to reduce puffiness. 3. Elevate your head: Sleep with your head slightly elevated to reduce fluid accumulation under the eyes. 4.

I've been dealing with a case of Acute Paronychia and it seems like it's getting better. The swelling's gone down, and I managed to squeeze out a lot of pus and discharge from the abscess, which I think cleared it out. But I'm not entirely sure, 'cause some odd things are leaving me questioning. Like, I peeled off some dry skin around the swelling area and noticed there's still a bit of a bump. Should I be worried, or is this normal during recovery?
Probable diagnosis is fungal infection , candid cream for local application, once daily for 2 weeks is advised, also tab levocetrizine 10 mg at bedtime for 7 days is advised, if any allergic reactions dermat opinion is advised.
