Question

Ive been really struggling with sun tanning on my hands and neck. Theyve gotten quite dark lately, and Id really love to get my hands and face to match in color since my face is still quite bright. I'm looking for affordable home-based treatments that can help even out my skin tone. Could you please give me some advice?

To reduce sun tanning on your hands and neck, you can try using a mixture of lemon juice and honey. Apply this mixture on the affected areas and leave it on for about 20 minutes before rinsing off with lukewarm water. You can do this daily until you see improvement. Additionally, using aloe vera gel on the tanned areas can also help in lightening the skin. Remember to apply sunscreen with a high SPF before going out in the sun to prevent further tanning.

Question

I've been dealing with jock itch and these white itching patches in my jock area for over a year now. Ive tried using antifungal powder, but it doesnt seem to work. Is there something else I can do to get relief from this? Im really worried its not going away, and I just dont know what to try next. Could there be another underlying issue causing this?

Question

I'm dealing with this skin thing that's kinda like a fungal infection, where I get these red rings. Sometimes it clears up on its own but then comes back. I'm trying to figure out which cream is better for it, Panderm Plus or Zoderm E? Any advice would be awesome!

Question

I'm really confused about something. Every time I drink alcohol or eat non-veg food, the area with my fungal infection gets super itchy and red. My doctor said alcohol isnt the cause, but I've heard from people that it might mean there's something wrong with my liver. Could that be true? What should I do about it?
