I've been dealing with urticaria and I'm currently taking Betacap 40mg, Primox 25mg, and Tyroxine 50mg for it. I'm a bit worried and wondering whether I should keep taking these medications or if they might be causing the issues. Could these meds be related to my urticaria?

View allI'm really worried about some stitches I recently had removed from my face after an accident. The marks left behind by the stitches have been bothering me, and I just want to know if there's a way to get rid of those marks so my skin looks like it did before. Also, I'm trying to grow a beard, but I'm not sure if it'll grow over the area where the stitches were. Could you give me some advice on what I should do?
use mederma on affected area for a long rum of 3months minimun for visible results

I've been dealing with a really sticky neck for the last couple of weeks. No matter how often I wash it, the stickiness comes back in just about 10 minutes. I'm sweating a normal amount, and I've never experienced anything like this before. I've tried washing with water and soap, but even right after a shower, my neck feels sticky again within 5 to 10 minutes. Any suggestions on how to get rid of this?
Sticky neck can be frustrating. Possible causes include: - Excessive sweating - Bacterial or fungal infections - Skin conditions like eczema or seborrheic dermatitis - Product buildup Try these remedies: 1. _Antibacterial soap_: Use a mild antibacterial soap to reduce bacteria. 2. _Antifungal powder_: Apply an antifungal powder to reduce fungal growth. 3. _Baby powder or talcum powder_: Absorb moisture and reduce stickiness. 4. _Apple cider vinegar_: Mix with water as a final rinse to balance skin pH. 5. _Tea tree oil_: Mix with water and apply to reduce bacterial and fungal growth.
