I'm trying to find a qualified surgeon to remove a mole located close to my right eye. It's been bothering me for a while, and I'm a bit worried about the procedure, especially since it's so near to my eye. Can you recommend someone who specializes in this kind of surgery, or should I be asking for a specific type of specialist? Any advice on what I should consider before going through with this would be really helpful.

I have pigmented skin and I'm really looking for a good oil-free pigmentation cream to use at night. Do you have any suggestions?

For pigmented skin, consider using oil-free, non-comedogenic night creams containing ingredients like niacinamide, vitamin C, licorice extract, or kojic acid, such as Neutrogena Rapid Wrinkle Repair Night Moisturizer, Olay Regenerist Micro-Sculpting Cream, or La Roche-Posay Pigmentclar Eye Cream, but always patch test and consult a dermatologist for personalized recommendations.

I've noticed that every time I masturbate, I break out with about a dozen new pimples on my face. Could there be a link between masturbation and acne? If so, what can I do about it since I know masturbation is a natural part of life?

Normal.

I'm seeing these black lines on both sides of my index fingernail and I just noticed them two days ago. Its worrying me a bit. I've been taking Amlopres AT 25 mg for my blood pressure for the past 6 years. Could this medication be related to what's happening with my nail? Or is there something else I should be concerned about?

The black lines on your nails could be due to a condition called splinter hemorrhages, which are tiny areas of bleeding under the nails. In your case, it may be related to the long-term use of Amlopres At (Amlodipine) for your blood pressure. I recommend consulting with a dermatologist to confirm the diagnosis and discuss appropriate treatment options. In the meantime, you can continue taking your Amlopres At as prescribed.
