I've been hearing about this anti-acne facial clean up that's typically available at beauty salons, and I'm curious if this kind of treatment is also handled by dermatologists. I feel like it might be safer if a dermatologist did it. Also, I'm wondering about how much it would typically cost.

I've had this small lump on my skin near the pubic area for the past 9 months and I'm not really sure what it is. Could you help me figure out what might be going on?

How do you treat body rash?

We need to determine the cause of rash and then treat accordingly. If you get a red rash with itching , it may be mostly due to an allergy which can be relieved by applying Moisturiser, wet cloth or ice pack to the affected area. You may need to take some antihistamine medications too under doctor's supervision.
