I've noticed a black dark spot about 1.5 cm in radius on the left side of my stomach. What's the best way to get rid of it? Also, during the hot summer months, I seem to get more pimples. Is there any connection or way to manage these skin issues better?

I've had this issue with fungal nails for years now. It started on my big toes, but it's beginning to spread to my other nails too. I'm getting married soon, and I'm really worried about how my nails will look. Can you recommend any medicine that could help with this?

I've been dealing with sudden itching all over my body for the past two days and it's really frustrating because I don't have any known allergies or conditions. I'm not sure what's triggering it and it's starting to worry me. Could you help me figure out what's going on and what I can do about it?

my doctor recommended using watnil for 2 weeks to treat a wart but i'm not sure if it's effective enough or if i should consider laser surgery instead will watnil actually remove the wart completely

Watnil (a salicylic acid and lactic acid solution) is often recommended for wart removal, but its effectiveness varies. While it can remove warts, it's not always guaranteed to remove them completely in just two weeks, and some warts may be more resistant to this treatment. Laser surgery can be more effective, especially for stubborn warts, but it's more invasive and may have side effects.
