Question

I've got this black patch behind my ear that's kinda itchy, and I didnt even notice it until someone else pointed it out to me. Should I be worried about it? What could it be?

Persistent or worsening symptoms Changes in appearance of the patch (e.g., growing, bleeding, or becoming painful) Signs of infection (such as pus, swelling, or warmth) If in doubt, its always best to consult a healthcare professional for a proper diagnosis and treatment.

Question

I've been using Melaglow cream for a year, applying it every night and washing it off in the morning. My skin was glowing while I was using it, but now that I've stopped, my skin is completely pigmented. It used to be fair before I started using the cream, but now it's turned dark. Is there a way to get my natural skin fairness back? Would really appreciate some guidance on this.
