I've been using Veet hair removal cream on my thighs and hips area. After about 8-10 days, I've started noticing an allergic reaction around my hips. I'm worried about it and I'm wondering what would be the best advice or treatment for this? I've also got a picture of the affected area if that helps.

I've been dealing with this fungal infection and ringworm on my stomach and neck for what feels like forever, almost 45 months. It's really bothering me, and I can't seem to get rid of it.

I'm using Tyza cream for my skin issue, and it's working well. But if I skip using it for even a day, the itching comes right back. Should I be worried about this? Is it a sign of a more serious problem?

Tyza cream is likely helping to manage your skin issue, but the rebound itching when missing a day's application could indicate: *Possible Causes* 1. *Dependence on the cream*: Your skin might be relying on the cream's active ingredients to control itching. 2. *Underlying skin condition*: The cream may be masking an underlying condition, such as eczema, psoriasis, or dermatitis. 3. *Skin barrier disruption*: The cream's ingredients might be altering your skin's natural barrier function, leading to increased sensitivity.

I put Colgate gel toothpaste on my face and it burned my skin. My first doctor had me use Calapure for about two weeks. Then I switched to another doctor who prescribed me Dosenide and Taiyu Skin Cream. Now I'm supposed to use Taiyu Skin Cream day and night and Uniwhite during the noon. It's been a month and I'm still waiting for my spotless skin to come back. Can you tell me how long it might take to see improvements? I'm really hoping to get my clear skin back soon.

Initial improvement could be seen within 2-3 weeks of starting the treatment. Full recovery and returning to your normal skin tone might take a few months, especially if the irritation was severe. Consistency is key. Stick to the regimen your doctor prescribed and be patient.
