I'm thinking about getting Q-switch Nd:YAG laser treatment for my dark lips and I'm a bit concerned about its safety. If the dark pigmentation on my lips is removed, will it come back again? I dont think its genetic since no one in my family has it, and Im not a smoker. I developed it when I turned 13. Could it be related to mild PCOS?

I'm dealing with an itching issue on my lower back that's been going on for about 2 months now, and I've also noticed some rashes in that area. I'm trying to figure out what might be causing this and what I can do to alleviate it. Any advice or suggestions would be really helpful.

It sounds like you may be experiencing a skin condition such as contact dermatitis or eczema. I recommend using a topical corticosteroid cream like Hydrocortisone 1% cream. Apply a thin layer on the affected area twice a day for up to 2 weeks. Additionally, you can take an oral antihistamine like Cetirizine 10mg once daily to help with the itching. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry, and avoid scratching to prevent further irritation. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please follow up with a healthcare provider for further evaluation.

I'm really struggling here. I've been dealing with multiple ringworms for about five months now, and it's been so frustrating. I was taking It mac 200, and it seemed to work at first, but as soon as I stopped, the ringworms came right back, and I've noticed my skin has gotten darker in those areas too. Is there something I can do to get rid of them for good? I'm really just looking for a permanent solution.

Candid cream for local application is advised for 3 weeks, along with tab flucanozole 150 mg once a week for 2 weeks is advised to the patient.
