I've been dealing with Keratosis Pilaris on my upper arms for a few years now, and it feels like it's getting worse lately. I've been using Moisturex and Xerina ointment after my doctor recommended them, but it's been five months and I haven't noticed any improvement. I really want to find a way to get rid of this. Any suggestions?

View allI've had these lumps in both my armpits for around two years now, and I'm starting to get a bit concerned. Do you think this is something serious? Are there any precautions I should be taking? Also, I'm not sure which doctor I should consult for thisany suggestions?
Considering your symptoms of high fever, frequent urination, and a persistent urge to urinate, it's possible that you have a urinary tract infection (UTI) . Your doctor has already advised Citralka and Dolo, which should help alleviate your symptoms. In addition to your current medication, your doctor may recommend: - *Antibiotics*: To treat the underlying UTI or bacterial infection. - *Pain relief medication*: To manage any discomfort or pain while urinating. - *Fluid management*: To ensure you're drinking enough water and managing your fluid intake. It's essential to follow up with your doctor to monitor your condition and adjust your treatment plan as needed. If your symptoms worsen or you experience severe abdominal pain, vomiting, or blood in your urine, seek immediate medical attention.

Hey, I've noticed my mom has these greenish patches on the upper parts of her thighs, and I'm really worried about what they might be. Can you tell me what could be causing this and how we might be able to treat it?
Greenish patches on the skin could be a sign of a fungal infection such as tinea versicolor. I recommend using an antifungal medication like Clotrimazole cream twice a day on the affected area for 2-4 weeks. Additionally, she can take oral antifungal medication like Fluconazole 150mg once a week for 2-4 weeks to help clear up the infection. It's also important to keep the affected area clean and dry to prevent further spread of the infection.
