I've heard that you can get crabs from having head lice. Is that true? I'm worried about getting pubic lice because of head lice. Can you tell me if that's possible?

I've noticed black spots on my ankles and I'm kinda worried. I don't see any other symptoms or problems, but some friends mentioned I should maybe see a doctor about it. Could you explain why these black spots might be appearing? And is there anything I can do to get rid of them?

I've been struggling with really bad tanning on my forehead for a while now. I've tried a bunch of things like kojic acid creams, Sabiglow, and I've even had a yellow peel done. I've also been taking Pinodin G for a couple of months. Right now, I'm using Tazret cream as recommended by my dermatologist, but honestly, I haven't noticed any difference. I work from home, so I'm not out in the sun much, but I still apply a light sunscreen. Can you suggest any effective anti-tanning creams, scrubs, or face packs? I'm really looking for something that works.
