I've been dealing with some intense skin itching at night ever since I recovered from dengue fever a week ago. It's mostly on my hands and legs and feels more like bump skin rather than a red rash. Could this itching be related to my recent dengue, or should I be worried about another skin issue? I'm really concerned and could use some guidance.

The itching you're experiencing, particularly at night, with bump-like skin on hands and legs, could be a post-dengue complication, but it's essential to consult a dermatologist to rule out other skin conditions, such as urticaria, pruritus, or allergic reactions, and seek guidance on appropriate treatment.

View allI've been using NilacA gel for three days and I'm noticing that my face looks kind of whitish now. Is this normal? I started using it for my pimples and I'm not sure if I should be worried about this change in skin color. Can you help me understand what's happening and if I should continue using it or stop?
The whitening of the face could be a side effect of using Nilac-A gel. It is important to discontinue the gel and consult a dermatologist for further evaluation. In the meantime, you can use a gentle cleanser and moisturizer to help with any irritation.

I'm noticing some dark spots on the back of my neck, thighs, and waist, and my underarms have become darker too. A skin doctor once mentioned it might be related to insulin resistance. Could that be true, and what steps should I take to figure this out?
Kojiglo cream for local application for atleast 3 weeks is advised.

I'm really curious about using Fair & Lovely, Vicco turmeric cream, and Himalaya fairness cream on my face. Are these creams safe for facial skin, and which one would you recommend as the best option? I've heard different things and just want to make sure I'm choosing the right one for my skin. Any advice would be great!
Among these, Vicco turmeric cream is considered safer as it contains natural ingredients like turmeric which has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. It is best to use Vicco turmeric cream for the face. Apply a thin layer of the cream on the face once or twice daily for best results.
