I've been dealing with whiteheads on my nose, and I've made a habit of picking at them. Recently, though, the skin on my nose started peeling, and now it's looking darker compared to the surrounding areas, plus there's this horizontal dark line running across it. I'm worried and wondering: will my skin eventually recover from this on its own? Should I be doing something different to help it heal?

View allI've had multiple small lipomas on both hands for the past 23 years, with some on my stomach and chest too. About 12 of them hurt when pressed hard. New ones keep appearing, and some older ones are getting bigger. Every doctor I've seen says surgery is the only option, but there are so many and I'm worried about scarring. Is there a safe treatment that can stop new lipomas from forming?
excision is advised to the patient,also surgery opinion at apollo hospital for further tt.

I've got around 13 to 15 lipomas on my hand and I'm really hoping to find a natural way to treat them without surgery. Are there any effective home remedies or lifestyle changes that might help shrink or get rid of them? I'm a bit worried about going under the knife and would prefer a gentler approach if possible. What options do I have?
No proven natural cure for lipomas; only surgery removes them—monitor if small and non-painful.

I'm dealing with a fungal infection, and I'm really unsure about whether it's safe to use soap in the affected areas, specifically around the groin and anal ring. What should I do?
Yes, you can use antifungal soap in the affected areas like the groin and anal ring surrounding area. You can use a soap containing ketoconazole or terbinafine. Make sure to lather the soap and leave it on the skin for a few minutes before rinsing off. Use it twice daily for best results.
