Ive been dealing with this really annoying itching on my wrist. Then, after a day, it swelled up a bit. I tried using some turmeric powder and it seemed to help, but the next day the itchiness and the swelling came back, this time on the back of my hand, and the swelling was way worse. It kept getting bigger for about three days. I put some more turmeric paste on it, and now the swellings gone down on my hand but has moved to my fingers. The itchiness is still there, and the swelling is bad and hurts a bit. Could this be from an insect bite? What do you think I should do?

View allMy skin feels super tight and won't bounce back no matter what I try even with lotions or gels. Could this mean I need some kind of medical treatment or surgery? It's really worrying me because nothing seems to help.
If these changes do not bring relief, you may want to see a dermatologist. Very dry skin can require a prescription ointment or cream. Dry skin also can be a sign of a skin condition that needs treatment. A dermatologist can examine your skin and explain what can help reduce your discomfort

I've been dealing with a cracked foreskin because of a fungal infection, and I'm really worried about it. I've tried using Betamil GM ointment, but I haven't seen any improvement. Could you suggest the best medication or treatment for this issue? I'm kind of at a loss here and really need some guidance.
It seems like the fungal infection might require a more targeted treatment. I recommend consulting a doctor for an antifungal cream such as Clotrimazole or Miconazole, and potentially an oral antifungal if the infection is persistent. In the meantime, keep the area dry and avoid any irritation.

Hey, I've been dealing with a really oily face and it's becoming quite frustrating. I recently came across Brevoxyl creamy wash and was wondering if I could use it daily instead of my regular soap to help with the oiliness. Is it safe to use every day, or could it cause any issues with my skin? Would love some guidance!
Yes you can use it no problem
