I've had this cyst on my left cheek for about a month now and I can't seem to squeeze it out. It's really bothering me and I'm worried about it getting worse. What kind of surgery would be best to remove it properly? Will there be any scarring?

For proper cyst removal, surgical excision is generally the most effective and recommended approach. This involves removing the entire cyst, including its wall, which can help prevent recurrence. While some scarring is likely, modern techniques and proper aftercare can help minimize its appearance.

I've been using Dk gel and Dazit M tablet for like 5 months, and suddenly I noticed these weird red spots on my thighs. They're not itchy or anything, but they went away as soon as I stopped with the Dazit M. So now I'm wondering if I can switch to LHist instead of Dazit M for maybe better results?

I'm dealing with a situation where my scrotum is constantly wet, and while there's no itching, it's making me pretty uncomfortable. Can you suggest what medication or treatment might help with this?

You can try using an antiperspirant specifically designed for sensitive areas like the scrotum. Apply a thin layer to the affected area once daily before bedtime. This can help reduce sweating and keep the area dry and comfortable.

I'm 34 and have had dermatitis for about 15 years. Over the years, I've seen quite a few dermatologists and gotten different treatments, but they only seem to give me temporary relief. I've noticed that every time I get my IgE levels checked, they're always above 5000. I'm starting to worry about what this could mean for my health in the long run. Could these high IgE levels affect my other organs or lead to other diseases?

yes u can use it, visit ur physician for apprpropriate managent
