I've been getting this weird swelling on my forehead lately. Sometimes it's on the left and other times on the right. It doesn't really hurt, but there's a bit of itching. It comes and goes within a few hours. Any idea what might be causing this?

The swelling on your forehead could be due to an allergic reaction, skin irritation, or even a mild form of hives. The itching without pain suggests it might be related to an environmental factor, like a change in weather, skincare products, or allergens. If it persists or worsens, it would be a good idea to check with a doctor for a proper diagnosis.

My face seems a lot darker compared to my chest and stomach, and I'm usually on the fairer side. I've been walking around 4 km every day to college, sometimes in the sun, and I'm wondering if this is a tan. How can I get my usual skin tone back? Also, I have quite a few dark pimple marks on my face. Are there any home remedies I can try?
