I'm really worried because I used hydroquinone cream for a couple of years, and ever since I stopped, my skin has been getting darker and more dull every day. Do you have any advice on how I can get my normal skin color back?

View allI'm sorry for asking, but I'm really worried. My baby girl seems much darker than me and my husband, and it's been bothering us. We both have fair skin, but she's five months old now, and her complexion seems to be getting darker. We've tried several oils, but nothing seems to work. Can you suggest anything to help improve her skin color?
Kojiglo cream for local application for atleast 3 weeks is advised.

I've been dealing with some trouble recently as bed mites have bitten my skin, and I'm even having issues on my penis. I've started using sulfur ointment on my skin, but I'm unsure if it's safe or appropriate to use on the penis. Would you have any advice on how to handle this situation? I'm really concerned about the best way to treat it.

Hey, I need some advice. I had a sexual exposure a while back and I'm kind of freaking out. I've gotten tested multiple times for HIV and STDstwo months, five months, and ten months after exposure, using HIV duo combo, RNA PCR, and ECLIA testsall negative. But now, 14 months later, I've got these weird maculo papular rashes on my chest and shoulders that darkened and peeled off. Could this be related to HIV even after all those negative tests? I'm really worried and don't know what to think.
Since your HIV tests at 10 months were negative, it is less likely that this rash is directly related to HIV. However, it is important to have a proper evaluation by a healthcare provider to determine the exact cause of the rash. In the meantime, you can try using an over-the-counter antihistamine like Cetirizine (10mg) once daily to help with any itching. If the rash persists or worsens, please seek medical attention for further evaluation and management.
