I've got a burn on my right leg, just above the foot, from falling onto a bike silencer that was on last Sunday, and now my foot's really swollen. Could you suggest some medicine or treatment to help with the swelling and pain?

View allI'm a 27-year-old guy and I'm dealing with some pimples on my face. I've been thinking about taking DOXOL LB pills regularly, but I'm not sure if it's safe. Could you advise me on that? Also, I have a really oily face and I'm looking for a good acne scar removal cream or medication. Is laser treatment a safe option for getting rid of acne scars? I'd really appreciate your help!
Consult your regular Dermatologist for proper frequency and dosing of your DOXOL - LB tablets. For oily face, you can use a face wash containing Salicylic acid twice daily to control oil production. Laser treatment for acne scars can be safe and effective, but it is important to consult with a dermatologist to determine the best treatment option for your specific condition.

I've been dealing with really dark and pigmented knees, and it's super embarrassing. I've tried using brightening creams and even a bunch of home remedies, but nothing seems to work. Could you recommend any medication or treatment that might help?
Dark and pigmented knees can be a cosmetic concern. Here are some suggestions: *Topical Treatments* 1. *Hydroquinone cream*: A common treatment for hyperpigmentation. However, use it under a dermatologist's guidance. 2. *Kojic acid cream*: Helps reduce melanin production and hyperpigmentation. 3. *Retinoid cream*: Derivatives of vitamin A that can help reduce hyperpigmentation. *Home Remedies* 1. *Lemon juice and honey*: Mix equal parts lemon juice and honey, apply to knees, and rinse after 20 minutes. 2. *Cucumber and turmeric*: Grate cucumber, mix with turmeric powder, and apply to knees. 3. *Coconut oil and sugar*: Mix coconut oil and sugar, gently scrub knees, and rinse.

I'm 28 and I've been dealing with these malar bags. I really don't want to go under the knife, so I've been trying different massages and even icing them. Is there anything else I can do to help reduce them or should I consider other treatments? I'm just really hoping to avoid surgery if possible.
