I've just gotten over a bout of chickenpox and it seems like I'm all cured now after about 15 days. I'm wondering how long I should wait before it's safe to have sex with my wife. What do you think?

yes you can do because Chickenpox is contagious for one to two days before the appearance of the rash and until the blisters have dried and become scabs.

View allMy baby's skin gets really itchy and red whenever they sweat, and I'm really concerned about it. I took some advice from a skin doctor, and they recommended using Dermocalm and Eusome twice daily. Could you help me understand why this might be happening and if there's anything else I should be doing to help my little one feel more comfortable?

I'm really struggling with dark knees, elbows, and underarms, and it's been bothering me for a while. Do you have any suggestions or treatments that could help with this? I'd really appreciate your advice.
Darkening of the skin in these areas can be due to various reasons such as friction, sun exposure, hormonal changes, or certain medical conditions. To help lighten these areas, you can try using a skin lightening cream containing hydroquinone or kojic acid. One example is "Melalite Forte cream" which can be applied once daily at night. Additionally, using a sunscreen with at least SPF 30 on these areas can help prevent further darkening. Remember to consult with a dermatologist before starting any new skincare regimen.

I've been dealing with this birthmark on my left cheek and after six rounds of laser treatment, it hasn't really lightened. I'm wondering if there are other ways to lighten birthmarks? Are there any creams or meds you'd recommend?
