I've been dealing with scars for about five years now and recently saw an ad for this scar removal cream called Mederma. I'm 33 and curious if this cream would actually help get rid of my scars. Is it safe to use, or should I be cautious?

View allI'm genuinely concerned about the heat in my body and how it's affecting my health. I've been getting ulcers in my mouth or on my tongue almost every month. It's really uncomfortable, and I'm starting to wonder what's causing them. Is the heat in my body connected to these frequent ulcers? How can I reduce this heat or prevent them from happening so often? Would love to hear your thoughts on this!
To decrease body heat, try: staying hydrated, wearing light clothing, taking cool showers or baths, practicing relaxation techniques like meditation or deep breathing, and avoiding spicy or heavy foods; regarding ulcers, the main reasons include: stress, hormonal changes, vitamin deficiencies (B12, iron), acidic or spicy foods, and underlying conditions like gastrointestinal issues or autoimmune disorders; to prevent monthly ulcers, consider keeping a food diary to track triggers, practicing good oral hygiene, and consulting your doctor or dentist for personalized advice.

I've got this wart near my left eye, and I was told that it might be wise to consider having it surgically removed with local anesthesia. It's preventative, in case it turns malignant in the future, but right now, it's not causing any trouble. Do you think it's a good idea to go ahead with the surgery? Since it's so close to my eye, is there any risk of nerve damage, or any other complications I should be aware of? Could it come back?
Yes its always better to get it removed,follow your doctors advice

I've been experiencing a sudden acne breakout on my cheeks and chin for the past 12 weeks, which is really unusual for me since I don't typically get acne. I even got tested for PCOD but that came out negative. I'm really confused and worried about what's causing this. Any ideas on what might be going on?
Sudden acne breakouts on the cheeks and chin in females can sometimes be due to hormonal fluctuations or changes in skincare products. Since your PCOD test results are negative, it's good to rule out hormonal imbalance. You can try using topical treatments containing Benzoyl Peroxide or Salicylic Acid. I recommend using "Differin Gel" once daily on the affected areas. Additionally, you can use "Cetaphil" gentle skin cleanser twice a day. If the acne persists, consider consulting a dermatologist for further evaluation and management.
