I've been dealing with a lot of ingrown hairs on my legs from shaving, and it's really frustrating. I've tried waxing multiple times, but those pesky ingrown hairs just won't disappear. It's starting to feel hopeless. Is there any solution to finally get rid of them once and for all?

View allI'm trying to figure out which ointment works best for cuts and wounds: Neosporin or T Bact? I've heard different things about both, and I'm not sure which one to go with. Could you help clear up the confusion?
Both Neosporin and T Bact ointments are effective for minor cuts and wounds, but Neosporin, containing neomycin and polymyxin B, has a broader antibiotic spectrum, making it a slightly better choice for preventing infection and promoting healing.

I've noticed these small dark spots covering the backside of my upper arms for quite a while now, and I'm really curious if it's something that can be treated or if it's just a birth defect. Could this be something serious?
The dark spots on the back of your upper arms could be due to various reasons. Here are a few possibilities: *Possible Causes* 1. *Keratosis Pilaris (KP)*: A common skin condition causing small, dark spots due to keratin buildup. 2. *Follicular Melanosis*: A harmless condition causing dark spots due to increased melanin in hair follicles. 3. *Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation (PIH)*: Dark spots resulting from inflammation or injury. *Treatment Options* 1. *Topical Creams*: Hydroquinone, retinoids, or vitamin C creams can help reduce dark spots. 2. *Chemical Peels*: A dermatologist can perform chemical peels to exfoliate the skin and reduce dark spots. 3. *Microdermabrasion*: A non-invasive exfoliating treatment that can help reduce dark spots. *Next Steps* 1. *Consult a Dermatologist*: Get a professional diagnosis to determine the cause of the dark spots. 2. *Discuss Treatment Options*: Work with your dermatologist to find the best treatment plan for your condition.
