I'm worried because I've been using this melamite cream for a couple of years to clear up my pimples. A friend recommended it, and it worked, but now if I try to stop using it, my face gets all red and starts burning. I really want to stop using this cream, but I don't know how to do it without these side effects. Do you know of any easy and fast ways to help me quit using it?

First of all, it's important to discontinue the use of Melamite cream to prevent further irritation. You can soothe your skin by using a gentle cleanser and applying a moisturizer with ingredients like aloe vera or hyaluronic acid. To help with the redness and burning sensation, you can use a topical corticosteroid cream like Hydrocortisone cream twice a day for a few days. Additionally, an over-the-counter antihistamine like Cetirizine can help reduce any itching or inflammation. Make sure to protect your skin from the sun and avoid harsh skincare products during this time. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and management.

View allI've been using Meghlow cream on my face for the past couple of months, and I've noticed that my skin is getting darker than it was before. Could this be an issue with the cream or is something else going on? Also, do you have any recommendations for a better cream for both my face and neck? I've heard about Panderm NM creamwhat are your thoughts on that?
Kojiglo cream for local application for atleast 3 weeks is advised.

I'm feeling kind of worried. My hands and feet have been getting really warm, almost hot, but the rest of my body temperature seems normal. I don't have a fever or anything like that, but it's just strange that only those areas are feeling warm. Should I be concerned about this? What could be causing it?
blood tests (for thyroid function, vitamin levels, glucose levels) Nerve conduction studies (to check for neuropathy) Circulatory tests (like an ankle-brachial index test or Doppler ultrasound) Electrolyte levels (to rule out imbalances)

My mom has been dealing with corns on every toe for the past 15 days and the pain is really bad. We're looking for medicine to treat it but want to avoid surgery. What options do we have?
For corns, topical salicylic acid and soft footwear help—surgery rarely needed unless chronic.
