I've been struggling with a fungal infection on my penis for the past 1.6 years. I've tried using Surfaz cream, which seems to help for a few weeks, but the infection always comes back. I'm really frustrated with this recurring issue. Can you please tell me if there's a permanent solution to get rid of it for good?

View allI'm considering trying out either a chemical peel or a skin laser lightening treatment to lighten my complexion a bit, both for my face and hands. There's no medical issue, I'm just curious about brightening things up a shade or two. If I go ahead with this, would you have any idea how much it might cost in Karnataka, India? Also, how much will my skin lighten after these treatments, and how long can I expect the effects to last? I'm just trying to weigh my options and figure out what might be the best approach!

I have a sebaceous cyst on my lower back can homeopathy treat it completely or would I need surgery for it
Yes, sebaceous cysts can often be treated without surgery. Depending on the size, location, and whether or not the cyst is infected or causing symptoms, a doctor may recommend non-surgical options like observation, injections, or drainage

I accidentally got some dettol on my forehead today, and now I've got this dark mark. It doesnt hurt or anything, but it just looks terrible. I'm already getting treatment for pimples, but my doctor is out of town. Can you tell me how long it might take for this mark to heal?
You can apply an antibiotic ointment like Silverex cream twice a day to prevent infection. Additionally, you can use a scar removal gel like Contractubex to help reduce the appearance of the dark mark. It usually takes about 1-2 weeks for minor burns to heal, but the dark mark may take longer to fade. Make sure to protect the area from sun exposure to prevent further darkening of the mark.
