I've been dealing with skin rashes for about a month now, and it's been really itchy. Sometimes it turns red. Can you help me figure out what's going on?

I've been living near Darjeeling, and just recently, I returned from a short trip to my hometown Nashik. Since coming back, I've noticed these dark patches around my waist and underarms. What could be causing this?

It sounds like you may be experiencing a condition called acanthosis nigricans, which is characterized by dark, velvety patches of skin. This can be caused by various factors such as obesity, insulin resistance, hormonal disorders, or certain medications. To help improve this condition, you can try using a topical cream containing hydroquinone, retinoids, or azelaic acid to lighten the dark patches. Additionally, maintaining a healthy weight through diet and exercise can also be beneficial. I recommend using a cream like Melalite Forte cream twice daily on the affected areas for 8-12 weeks. Make sure to apply a thin layer and avoid sun exposure on the treated areas. If the dark patches persist or worsen, it is best to consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and management.

I'm an MBBS doctor dealing with acne vulgaris grade 2, and after trying minoz 40mg for 10 days with topical adaplene gel, I still haven't seen any improvement. I'm wondering what I should try next. Do you think Tretinoin would be necessary, and what would the dose be? I've noticed it gets worse pre-menstrually. Any advice?

For acne vulgaris get a complete course of antibiotic and yes isotretinoin would help you ,visit dermatologist for appropriate management
