I've got this sore on my inner thigh from my thighs rubbing together, and I've been using Betadine on it but it just won't heal. Can you tell me what else I should do?

That could be friction rub or fungal infection, maintain personal hygiene and visit Dermatologist for appropriate treatment.

I've been dealing with a pigmentation issue and visited a dermatologist for help. They suggested I use Melapik Ever cream on my face at night. But when I woke up, my face felt itchy and had a burning sensation. After using it for a couple more days, my skin became incredibly dry, and a whitish layer appeared all over. Plus, my skin seems darker than it was before. I told the doctor about these reactions, and they advised me to stop using the cream. Is this a normal reaction? What should I do next to get my skin back to normal?

Kozicure cream for local application is advised for 3-6 weeks , at bedtime ,if any side-effects dermat opinion is advised .

I've been dealing with xanthelasma under my right eye for a while now. I'm 25 and really trying to lower my cholesterol by eating healthily and exercising, but its just not disappearing. I'm wondering how much it would cost to get this removed in India?

I've been dealing with hidradenitis in both armpits and it's really affecting my daily life. Is there any permanent solution for this condition? Would surgery be the most effective treatment option? I've heard about laser surgery - could that be a possibility for my case?

Laser or surgical excision can offer long-term relief from hidradenitis—consult a dermatologist or surgeon for evaluation.
