I've been struggling with dark circles for years, and I'm wondering how I can get rid of them. What kind of treatment would you recommend, and how much does it usually cost? Are there any side effects I should be concerned about? Or maybe are there any home remedies that could help reduce them permanently? I'm really hoping to find a solution.

I've been using Betnovate C on my face for about six months to manage pimples and help with skin lightening, but as soon as I stop using it, the pimples come back. I usually apply it at night. Some friends say it's not good to use it continuously. Could you advise me on what I should do next?

Yes stop using it because it contains steroids and could make your skin sensitive,visit Dermatologist for evaluation and appropriate management

I've noticed a tiny white seed-like thing just under the skin on the shaft of my penis, right below the head, for about 6 months now. It's not painful, hasn't changed or grown, and I can even move it around a bit under the skin. It's a bit smaller than a sunflower seed. Lots of people seem to have asked about this but I haven't found any clear answers. What could this be and is it something that can or should be removed?

Clopivate cream for local application is advise for 7 days, if any side -effects dermatologist opinion is advised .

I've been dealing with this pimple on my face and decided to try betamethasone ointment on it. After I washed my face, I noticed that the area where I applied it looked lighter. I'm not sure if that's a good sign or if I should be concerned. Could this be a side effect or does it mean the ointment is working?

Clinsol gel for local application is advised for 3-6 weeks.
