I've been having this really weird sensation, feeling like a bunch of needles poking out of my skin, and it's getting worse. It mainly happens when I'm out in the Sun or doing something physical, especially in Winter. The only thing that kinda helps is taking off my clothes and getting near something cold or scratching a lot, but that isn't really a solution. It's not just uncomfortable anymore, it's affecting my daily life and work. I also noticed red patches in the areas where this happens. I try bathing with cold water which helps a bit, but I'm worried because this problem is getting out of hand. I'm hoping there's a more permanent fix or at least something that can make it more manageable. Any advice?

I'm concerned because I've been using Beta GC ointment for around two years for itching and pimples on my face, based on my doctor's advice. I've been applying it once every 8 to 10 days, but if I stop, I get these small pimple-like bumps and the itching starts up again. Now I'm really worried because I can't find the tube in the market anymore. What should I do?

Thats unusual,visit General Physician for appropriate approach.and maintain balanced diet and healthy lifestyle

I'm a 35-year-old woman and I'm wondering if Dermadew cream can be used as an anti-aging treatment. Is it safe and does it actually work for that purpose?

Dermadew cream can be a good hydrating moisturizer, but for targeted anti-aging benefits, you might need a cream that contains other proven active ingredients such as retinol, vitamin C, or peptides. Always patch-test a product first and consider consulting a dermatologist
