I've been struggling with acne marks on my face, and once they heal, the scabs leave behind fresh pink skin that doesn't blend in well with the rest of my face. It takes forever for these spots to lighten up or become less noticeable. This whole situation has really hit my confidence hard. I feel embarrassed to go out and often end up avoiding social gatherings because of it. I'm basically drained emotionally by all this. Is there anything I can do to help make these marks fade faster or blend better?

View allI've noticed these dark spots on my lower back near my spinal cord that started appearing over a month ago. They don't hurt or itch, but they seem to be spreading, and it's starting to make me a bit concerned. Should I be worried or get this checked out? Any idea what might be causing this?
Could be a condition called Tinea Versicolor. This is a fungal infection of the skin that can cause discolored patches. I recommend using an antifungal medication such as Clotrimazole cream applied twice daily for 2-4 weeks. Additionally, you can use a medicated shampoo containing selenium sulfide to wash the affected area. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry to prevent further spread of the infection.

I'm 39 years old and have been dealing with chickenpox for the last couple of days. The blisters are all over my body, especially on my face. I've heard about using Dettol antiseptic liquid for bathing, and I'm wondering if that's okay while I'm dealing with such severe symptoms. I'm just worried about whether it might irritate my skin more or if it could help sanitize those blisters a bit. Any advice would be really appreciated.
