I've got multiple lipomas all over my body and I'm wondering if there's a way to remove them without major surgery or if there are any other treatment options that might work better for me
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
For lipomas, several treatment options beyond major surgery exist, including steroid injections, liposuction, and minimal excision. Steroid injections can help shrink lipomas, especially smaller ones, by breaking down fat cells. Liposuction can remove lipomas, particularly in areas where scarring is undesirable. Minimal excision is a surgical technique that can reduce scarring.

I'm noticing that whenever I eat foods that are considered "heaty," like spicy or fried items, I end up getting pimples on my face. It's really frustrating. Do you have any advice on how I can avoid this or clear up my skin when it happens? Is there something specific in these foods that's causing the breakouts?
Clinsol gel for local application is advised for 3-6 weeks.

Hey, I've noticed my mom has these greenish patches on the upper parts of her thighs, and I'm really worried about what they might be. Can you tell me what could be causing this and how we might be able to treat it?
Greenish patches on the skin could be a sign of a fungal infection such as tinea versicolor. I recommend using an antifungal medication like Clotrimazole cream twice a day on the affected area for 2-4 weeks. Additionally, she can take oral antifungal medication like Fluconazole 150mg once a week for 2-4 weeks to help clear up the infection. It's also important to keep the affected area clean and dry to prevent further spread of the infection.
