I've been dealing with macular amyloidosis for two years now and nothing seems to work creams, meds, nothing. Are there any surgical options like dermabrasion or chemical peels that could help? I'm worried about safety but also really want something that actually works. What do you suggest?

While topical treatments are the first line of defense for macular amyloidosis, dermabrasion and chemical peels are sometimes considered as options, but they carry risks and should be discussed with a dermatologist. Other surgical options like laser therapy, specifically Nd:YAG laser, have also been shown to be effective. It's crucial to consult with a dermatologist to determine the safest and most appropriate treatment plan for your specific case, as individual results can vary

View allI've been dealing with dead skin on my penis foreskin for about a year now. There's a lot of itching and scratching in that area, and it's really uncomfortable. I've seen a skin specialist four times, and each time they've given me a different treatment. I've used Castellani's paint and AF 400 mg, then Daktar gel with AF 400 mg, and more recently, normal saline and Onabet for 15 days. But nothing's working, and I'm really worried. What do you think I should do next?
Since the previous treatments have not shown improvement, I recommend trying a combination of Clotrimazole cream (such as Canesten) twice daily on the affected area and taking Fluconazole 150 mg once a week for 4 weeks. Additionally, practicing good hygiene, keeping the area clean and dry, and avoiding irritants can also help in managing the condition.

I've been dealing with hair fall since I was 23, which was about two years ago, and now my hairline's starting to form that dreaded M shape. I'm looking for a way to control it, and I stumbled across Trichoton tablets. Could these tablets actually help with the usual improvement in hair growth and development, or is there something else I should consider?

I'm a Civil Engineer and I'm outside at worksites a lot, which means I'm always in the sun. I try to use umbrellas and scarves, but they don't seem to help much. The sun leaves me with a tan that's really bugging me, and I'm starting to see some wrinkles forming too. I usually don't have a lot of time for salon treatments, but I make sure to go for a cleanup once a month and apply a turmeric milk face pack on alternate days. My skin's a bit oily, but I don't get many pimplesmaybe because of the face pack. I'm really hoping for some advice on how to get back to a fairer complexion. Any suggestions?
Kozicare cream is advised.Side-effects include itching and hypersensitivity reactions
