I'm studying airport management, and I've been feeling like my skin color is affecting my confidence. Is there a way to lighten my skin quickly? Also, I'm struggling with darkness under my eyes. What can I do about that?

To lighten your skin and reduce under eye darkness, you can consider using a topical cream containing hydroquinone for skin lightening. Additionally, for under eye darkness, you can use a cream containing retinol or vitamin C to help brighten the under eye area. Make sure to apply sunscreen daily to protect your skin from further darkening. Also, getting enough sleep and staying hydrated can help improve the appearance of your skin.

I'm really concerned because I've been dealing with these small, white, hard bumps on my scalp for about a year and a half now. They're super itchy, and it's causing a lot of hair loss, which is really worrying me. At first, I thought it might be dandruff, but there's nothing flaky about it. I'm constantly scratching my scalp, and it's getting really frustrating. Can you help me figure out what's going on and what I can do about it?

That could be fungal infection as this needs evaluation visit Dermatologist for appropriate management,do not attempt to scratch it or squeeze it.

I'm dealing with a water allergy, and it's causing me a lot of discomfort every time I take a bath because I get really itchy all over. My doctor prescribed Althrocin 500 for this, but I'm not sure if that's normal for treating something like this. Is there something else I should be aware of, or any other treatments I might need to consider?

try water sofners and avoid hot showers

I've had warts on my feet for over a month now. The doctor recommended Watnil solution but it hasn't helped at all. My friends say it might need to be cut out with minor surgery, which really scares me. Are there any other medicines that can cure warts without surgery?

Its a very minor surgical procedure. Its done by electrocautery or by radiofrequency ablation. Its done under local anaesthesia. Treatment cost varies in different clinics. Lotion takes long time to act and it should be applied properly.
