I've been told to try Dermadew soap for improving my skin tone, but I'm 19 and have really sensitive skin. Is this the right choice for me, or should I consider other options?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Dermadew soap can help with hydration and mild skin brightening, but for sensitive skin, it's essential to do a patch test first to avoid irritation. Gentle products with calming ingredients like aloe vera or oatmeal might suit you better. Avoid harsh soaps and focus on sunscreen, as sun protection is crucial for even skin tone and sensitivity management.

View allI've been using Dremz ultra cream for post-inflammatory pigmentation for about two weeks now. I'm wondering if it's okay to keep using it for a longer period of time, and how would I know when to stop? Also, are there any side effects if I suddenly stop using it? Could you explain all this to me in detail?
Dremz Ultra cream, containing ingredients like kojic acid, vitamin C, and niacinamide, is typically used for 2-3 months to address post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH); using it for an extended period may lead to skin irritation, dryness, or increased sensitivity; to avoid rebound hyperpigmentation, gradual tapering of the cream is recommended when stopping, such as reducing frequency or switching to a maintenance product, and side effects from sudden cessation are unlikely, but may include mild skin irritation or recurrence of PIH.

I've been working as an assistant professor at an engineering college, and I've been using a skin cream called My Fair for about two months. But just last week, I went to my village and spent a lot of time working under the sun in the fields. This made my skin turn extremely dark. My friend, who recommended the cream, said I should have used sunscreen when going out. Thankfully, my skin's back to normal with the same cream, but I'm really troubled by what happened. Can you give me some advice on how to prevent this in the future and how to deal with this dependency on the cream? Id really appreciate some guidance.

I got bitten by a rat on my finger last night. It feels like a needle pinch at that spot. The doctor gave me abhayrab and a tt shot. Do I need something else?
Rabies Immunoglobulin (IMG) is typically administered in addition to the rabies vaccine if the exposure is considered high risk (e.g., deep bite wounds, exposure to wild animals, or if the animal cannot be observed or tested for rabies). If the bite was relatively minor (such as a small puncture wound), and the rat was not acting abnormally, you might not need IMG. If the doctor did not recommend IMG, they may have assessed the risk as low based on the circumstances of the bite.Monitor for symptoms: After a rat bite, be vigilant for any signs of infection such as increased redness, swelling, pain, or discharge from the wound. If you notice any unusual symptoms, seek medical attention. Observe the animal: If you can, try to observe the rat or determine whether it was showing any signs of illness (though this is often difficult). If the rat was acting unusually (e.g., aggressive or showing signs of rabies), this could increase the risk of rabies
