I've been diagnosed with DPN and my dermatologist said laser surgery is the only option but I'm hesitant about going under the laser. Are there any effective homeopathic treatments that could help reduce these bumps without invasive procedures?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
While homeopathy isn't a scientifically established method for treating Dermatosis Papulosa Nigra (DPN), some homeopathic practitioners may suggest specific remedies based on individual symptoms and constitution. However, for DPN, surgical methods like cryosurgery, electrocautery, or curettage are generally considered the most effective treatments

View allI've been struggling with some pretty bad acne and scars in the area between my breasts since I was 14, and now I'm 17. It's super embarrassing, and no matter what the temperature is, I tend to sweat a lot there. I'm at a loss about what to do. Could you offer some advice?
Possible Causes* 1. *Sweat and bacteria*: Excessive sweating in the intermammary fold (the area between your breasts) can create a warm, moist environment where bacteria thrive, leading to acne. 2. *Friction and irritation*: Tight clothing, bras, or excessive movement can cause friction, leading to irritation and acne. 3. *Hormonal fluctuations*: As a 17-year-old, hormonal changes during puberty might contribute to acne. *Self-Care Tips* 1. *Keep the area clean*: Gently wash the area with a mild soap and lukewarm water. 2. *Use a gentle exfoliant*: Exfoliate the area 1-2 times a week with a gentle scrub or a chemical exfoliant containing alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs) or beta-hydroxy acids (BHAs). 3. *Wear loose, breathable clothing*: Choose cotton or linen clothing that allows for airflow and reduces friction. 4. *Use a medicated powder or spray*: Apply a powder or spray containing ingredients like salicylic acid, tea tree oil, or aluminum chloride to help control sweat and bacteria. *Professional Help* 1. *Consult a dermatologist*: Schedule an appointment with a dermatologist for personalized advice and treatment. 2. *Consider topical or oral treatments*: Your dermatologist may prescribe topical creams, gels, or oral antibiotics to help manage acne and prevent scarring. *Remember* 1. *You're not alone*: Many people experience acne and skin issues in this area. 2. *Seek support*: Talk to a trusted friend, family member, or mental health professional if you're feeling embarrassed or self-conscious.

I'm struggling with acne scars and dark spots on my face and I'm really curious if taking Evion capsules orally would be safe for me. I'm also in the middle of a weight loss journey; I'm hitting the gym regularly and sticking to a diet plan. My big worry is whether Evion could lead to weight gain. Are there any side effects I should know about?
Evion capsules, which contain Vitamin E, can be beneficial for skin health. You can take Evion 400mg capsules orally once daily. Vitamin E can help improve skin texture and reduce scars and dark spots. Taking Evion capsules should not directly cause weight gain. However, as with any supplement, it is essential to maintain a balanced diet and exercise routine to support your weight loss goals.

I'm having trouble fully retracting the skin on my penis because it seems attached to the frenulum. What can I do to address this, and is there an easy way to deal with it?
You cant remove it.if it is painful or unable to retract the foreskin,then that could be phymosis for which you have to visit your surgeon for appropriate management.
