I'm really struggling with my skin during the winter months. It turns really dark and dry, and oddly enough, it actually gets even darker when I use moisturizers. To top it off, I start breaking out with pimples too. It's so frustrating, because my skin is completely fine in the summersmooth, bright, and pimple-free. I'm based in Delhi, if that makes any difference. Could you help me figure out what's going on and what I can do about it?

I'm really worried about the moles on my face and body. I tried homeopathic treatment, but I couldn't keep up with it, and now my moles have increased and I'm getting warts too. I'm scared that if I don't find a solution soon, my face will be covered in moles. Initially, I had 1213 moles but now it's up to 2324. I don't want any scars from treatment and want my face to look smooth. How much would it cost if I chose laser treatment for my whole face? Also, would homeopathy be a good option for me? How long would it take to completely get rid of these moles from my face?

I've got this really frustrating red rash on my thigh near the private area. I tried using Miconazole nitrate with fluocinolone acetonide cream, but it doesn't seem to be helping at all. The first time I had this rash, I used dermi ford cream, and it cleared up, but now the rash has come back. Any idea what I should do next?

I'm 27 and have been dealing with a lipoma for around six years. A year ago, I found two more big ones, had surgery to remove them, but now I've noticed about 15 small ones popping up on my body. They're quite tiny at the moment. Can you give me some advice on how to get rid of them while they're still small? Also, I've just started taking homeopathy medicine a couple of days ago. I hit the gym daily - does working out make these lipomas grow more? Plus, I take whey protein. Could this be a factor?

No need to worry,thats called durcums disease and those lipomas are harmless,if they are concerning you cosmetically,visit Plastic surgeon for appropriate management
