I'm really worried about these dark spots on my face, they seem like melasma, and they're on both sides. I've heard about Melalite 15 cream, and I'm wondering if it's safe and effective to use for this? Is there a better cream you would recommend for treating melasma? I'm just trying to find the best way to deal with this.

I've got this flaky skin inside my ear, and after I peeled it off, a clear liquid started coming out. It's a bit painful too. What could be causing this? Should I be worried, and how can I treat it?

A lump on the back of your tongue can be concerning. Possible causes: 1. Trauma or injury 2. Mucocele (mucous cyst) 3. Fibroma (benign tumor) 4. Papilloma (benign growth) 5. Leukoplakia (pre-cancerous lesion) Consult an Ear, Nose, and Throat (ENT) specialist or an oral surgeon for a proper evaluation and diagnosis.
