I've been dealing with this scabies issue for almost 45 months now. I used permethrin and lindane lotion, and that helped a lot, but I'm frustrated because I still have these nodular bumps and persistent itching, especially in my armpits and genitals. I've tried corticosteroid ointments and even oral antiallergics, but nothing seems to fully clear it up. What else can I do to get rid of them and the itching once and for all? I'm pretty concerned about why this is just not going away.

I'm curious about getting rid of some old blade cut marks I've had on my arm for almost 8 years now. What's the best way to treat them, and what kind of cost should I expect?

To remove old blade cut marks on your arm, you can consider undergoing laser therapy. Laser therapy can help reduce the appearance of scars by promoting collagen production and skin regeneration. One commonly used medication for this purpose is Mederma, which is a topical gel containing onion extract. It is recommended to apply Mederma on the scar twice daily for at least 3 months to see visible results. Additionally, silicone gel sheets like ScarAway can also be used to flatten and fade the scars. As for the cost, the price of laser therapy sessions can vary depending on the size and severity of the scars, as well as the number of sessions required.

I'm curious about breast enlargement creams and their effectiveness. Could you explain how these creams work? Are there any potential pros and cons I should be aware of before considering using them?

Breast enlargement creams often claim to enhance size through ingredients like phytoestrogens, but their effectiveness is not scientifically proven, and results, if any, are usually temporary. While they are generally non-invasive, they may cause skin irritation or allergic reactions. For lasting changes, consult a specialist to explore safe, evidence-based options.
