I've been dealing with these dark marks on my forehead and nose after I couldn't resist pinching some pimples. It's really frustrating and I'm worried about how to get rid of them. What should I do to help fade these black spots?

I've got a raised mole on my upper lip and really want it gone, but I'm worried about scarring. A couple of doctors mentioned that removing it with a laser might leave a scar the size of the mole, and I'm trying to avoid that. Is there any way to get it off with little to no scarring? I'm sharing a picture with this. Any advice would be appreciated.

One option to consider is a surgical excision where the mole is cut out with a scalpel. This method can minimize scarring if done carefully by a skilled dermatologist or plastic surgeon. Another option is cryotherapy, where the mole is frozen off using liquid nitrogen. This method may also result in minimal scarring. I recommend consulting with a dermatologist to discuss these options and determine the best course of action for your specific case.

I've developed this red rash and some small bumps on my arm after donating plasma yesterday. Now its starting to spread to my face and ears, possibly because I've been touching it. The bumps look like little pimples, and theyre just in one area. They're not leaking or anything though. Could this be a reaction to iodine or nickel? Should I try using creams or is it better to see a doctor? I don't have health insurance, so I'm hoping to avoid unnecessary visits.

The dull pinch sensation and purple spot on your glans corona are concerning symptoms. _Possible Causes_ 1. *Penile trauma*: The pinch sensation and bruise-like spot might be related to minor trauma during masturbation. 2. *Penile fracture*: Although less likely, a penile fracture (fracture of the corpora cavernosa) could cause similar symptoms. 3. *Thrombosed vein*: A thrombosed vein under the skin's surface might cause a purple spot and pinch sensation. 4. *Infection or inflammation*: An infection or inflammation, such as balanitis, could cause similar symptoms. _What to Do_ 1. *Consult a urologist*: Schedule an appointment with a urologist to evaluate your symptoms and provide a proper diagnosis. 2. *Avoid sex and masturbation*: Refrain from any sexual activity until you've consulted a urologist and received guidance. 3. *Monitor symptoms*: Keep track of any changes in your symptoms, including the frequency and intensity of the pinch sensation.
