Question 1

I've had a sebaceous cyst on my scrotum for about 3 years now and really want to avoid surgery. Are there any other ways to treat it or make it go away naturally?

Accepted Answer

Occasionally, small scrotal sebaceous cysts may go away on their own. The use of a warm compress a couple of times a day can help reduce the size of the cyst or swelling by encouraging the cyst to drain or reabsorb into the body. However, larger cysts are unlikely to go away without surgical treatment.

Question 2

I've been using Melacare for a long time, but then I started traveling a lot for work between Pune and Mumbai, and my skin is now completely sunburned and darker. I used to be fair, but now my skin is almost black, and it's a lot. Can I start using Melacare again? Will that help me get my skin back to how it was before? I'm really worried about showing my face to anyone right now and could really use your advice.

Question 3

I've been dealing with a pimple on my face for about 3 to 4 months, and I used Dettol on it. My skin burned in that spot, and now the burned skin is gone, but a black mark is left behind. It's getting darker as days go by. What can I do about it?

Accepted Answer

The dark mark, likely a post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) scar, can be treated with topical creams or serums containing ingredients like hydroquinone, kojic acid, or niacinamide; consult a dermatologist for a proper evaluation and personalized advice, and in the meantime, use sunscreen with at least SPF 30 daily and avoid picking or scratching the area to prevent further darkening.

I've been dealing with these recurring rashes on my foreskin, and it's getting frustrating. I've seen several doctors, and while the meds help for a bit, the rashes just keep coming back after a few months. Any idea why this keeps happening or what else I can do to prevent it?
