I've been dealing with these itchy granular rashes on my palm, and sometimes on my feet, for about a week now. The itching on my palm won't stop, and it's starting to really bug me. What's going on and how can I find relief?

It sounds like you may be experiencing contact dermatitis. You can try using an over-the-counter antihistamine like Cetirizine (10mg) once daily to help with the itching. Additionally, applying a topical corticosteroid cream like Hydrocortisone 1% to the affected areas twice a day can help reduce inflammation and itching. Make sure to avoid any known triggers or irritants that may be causing the allergic reaction. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it's best to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

I've been dealing with severe pigmentation on my hands and neck, and I'm really struggling to find something that works long-term. Initially, I tried using Glyaha Koj with Diprovate, and it seemed to help, but once I stopped, the discoloration came right back. Then I moved on to using Melacare and Skinlite, but unfortunately, they didn't make much of a difference. I'm now wondering if chemical peels could be a solution here. Do you think they might help with this stubborn pigmentation?

Chemical peels containing ingredients like glycolic acid, salicylic acid, or trichloroacetic acid can help in reducing pigmentation and improving skin tone. It is important to consult a dermatologist to determine the most suitable type and strength of chemical peel for your skin type and pigmentation severity. One commonly used chemical peel for pigmentation is Cosmelan. It is a depigmentation treatment that helps to reduce melanin production and lighten dark spots. The treatment involves applying the Cosmelan mask in the clinic and then following a specific at-home care regimen. For your severe pigmentation concern on hands and neck, a series of chemical peel sessions may be recommended, typically spaced a few weeks apart. It is important to follow post-peel care instructions diligently, including sun protection, to achieve the best results and prevent further pigmentation. Always consult with a dermatologist before starting any new treatment to ensure it is safe and appropriate for your skin condition.

I've noticed that Cinthol soap tends to cause pimples on my skin, but whenever I try switching from Cinthol, my face seems to get darker. I'm considering using Dermadew or Dermadew Light to help lighten my skin and keep it pimple-free. Could you advise which one might be more suitable for my situation? I'm quite worried about this and would appreciate any guidance.

try with dermadew lite that could help you and also use good moisturizer for your skin to give good nourishment

I've been trying to understand how often PRP treatment can be done because different clinics are saying different things. Some say they would apply the treatment twice a month over three months if the hair doesn't grow, which adds up to six times in three months. Is this frequency safe and effective? I'm concerned about whether there's a standard or if overdoing it could have side effects.

Yes continue as advised by the dermatologist.
