I've had these hickey-like marks on my neck for around 5 months now, and they just won't go away. I haven't applied the keto cream for a few days, but it doesn't seem to be making any difference anyway. What should I do? Any advice would be appreciated.

View allI'm really worried after the doctor mentioned I might have this steroid-related issue from using Lucobet skin cream. I can't remember the full name of the disease the doctor said. I'm currently on Doxil 100 and Nioclean gel for treatment. How long do you think it'll take before I see some improvement?

I've been experiencing some really intense itching on my fingers and toes, and I just found out it's Dyshidrotic eczema. Do you have any treatment suggestions or tips on how to manage this condition? It's been really uncomfortable, so any advice would be appreciated.
Dyshidrotic eczema can be treated with topical corticosteroids such as Clobetasol propionate cream applied twice daily for 2 weeks, followed by once daily for 2 weeks. In addition, you can use emollients like Cetaphil Restoraderm lotion to keep the skin moisturized. If the itching is severe, you can take oral antihistamines such as Loratadine 10mg once daily. If there is any sign of infection, antibiotics like Cephalexin 500mg four times a day for 7-10 days may be necessary.

My upper body is tan while my lower body is much fairer can skin whitening treatments even out my skin tone? I've heard it involves chemicals but I'm not sure how it works or if it's safe. Is it possible to lighten just the darker areas to match the rest?
Yes, skin whitening treatments can potentially even out your skin tone by lightening the darker areas. However, the effectiveness and permanence of these treatments vary, and it's crucial to manage expectations and understand potential risk
