I've been struggling with a pretty bad face burn, and now my skin's turning really dark and blackish. I've tried using Hydroheal cream when it first happened and then switched to coconut oil. But I'm worried because it doesn't seem to be getting any better. Is there anything else I should be doing to help my skin recover?

I'm dealing with a skin disease that just came up suddenly, and it's all over my body. It's really red and almost looks like little mountains popping up. The itching is so intense that I'm up all night because I have to keep rubbing it, and it's burning like crazy. I've seen a lot of doctors over the past 18 months, but no one seems to have a solution. What's going on with my skin, and why isn't anything helping?

could be due to allergies consult your doctor and avois allergen

I've noticed this spot that appeared when I was 8 years old, and it started to spread on my right elbow. It's got me a bit concerned because I'm not sure if it's something I should be worried about or if it needs treatment. What could this be, and should I think about getting it checked out by a professional?
