I've got these small holes and some redness on my skin because of pimples. They aren't really noticeable unless you're pretty close, like 5 feet away or less. I'm currently using a cream with hq 2 vv. Do you think I should reach out to a doctor for this, or will it just get better on its own over time? Can you take a look at my skin in the pictures and maybe suggest something?

I'm noticing some darkening on my face and I'm kind of worried it might be related to my cholesterol levels. Could it possibly have something to do with LDL or HDL? I'd really appreciate some guidance on this.

Skin darkening on the face is not typically a direct result of cholesterol levels such as LDL or HDL. However, certain medical conditions like diabetes or hormonal imbalances can cause skin darkening. To address the issue, you can use a skin lightening cream containing hydroquinone or kojic acid. Additionally, using a sunscreen with a high SPF daily can help prevent further darkening of the skin.

I recently had stents placed in both my ureters and they were there for a week after my RIRS procedure. After the stents were removed, I tried to masturbate after a couple of days because I felt the urge, but I ended up having this weird experience where it felt like sperm was coming out but nothing actually did; it was just dry. Should I be worried about this or is it something that can happen?

After stent removal, it's normal to experience temporary changes in ejaculation, and the "dry" sensation could be due to inflammation, scarring, or residual swelling, so consult your urologist to rule out any complications or blockages

I'm really worried because I've been using this fairness cream for a month, and now my skin's gotten dull and I've started getting pimples. My skin used to be pretty good before this. Could the cream be damaging my skin? What should I do to fix it?

It sounds like you may be experiencing a reaction to the cream you have been using. To help improve your skin condition, I recommend stopping the use of the current cream and switching to a gentle cleanser and a non-comedogenic moisturizer. You can also consider using a topical acne treatment containing benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid for the pimples. Additionally, incorporating a vitamin C serum can help brighten your skin. Remember to always use sunscreen during the day to protect your skin.
