I've noticed this dark black spot on my nose that started about two months ago, and it's beginning to spread. I've already seen a doctor who prescribed some ointment, soap, and tablets, plus I've been applying aloe vera. I'm really eager to know if there's anything else I could try to speed up the healing process. Any suggestions?

View allI'm trying to figure out how to gradually stop using Melacare cream because I'm experiencing some side effects like dry skin and facial hair growth. I'm also looking for a recommendation on a different fairness cream that won't cause these issues. Can you help me out with this?
To stop using Melacare cream without losing fairness: *Tapering Off Melacare Cream* 1. *Gradual reduction*: Reduce the frequency of application over 2-4 weeks (e.g., from daily to every other day, then to twice a week). 2. *Dilute the cream*: Mix Melacare cream with a moisturizer (1:1 ratio) to reduce its potency. 3. *Replace with a moisturizer*: Once you've tapered off Melacare, switch to a gentle, non-comedogenic moisturizer. *Alternative Fairness Creams* 1. *Kojic acid-based creams*: Kojivit, Kojic acid cream, or La Roche-Posay Mela-D Pigment Control. 2. *Niacinamide-based creams*: Olay Regenerist, Neutrogena Rapid Wrinkle Repair, or Paula's Choice 10% Niacinamide Booster. 3. *Vitamin C-based creams*: Olay Vitamin C, Neutrogena Vitamin C, or Dr. Dennis Gross Skincare C+ Collagen Brighten and Firm Serum. *Addressing Side Effects* 1. *Dry skin*: Use a gentle, hydrating moisturizer. 2. *Facial hair growth*: Consider waxing, threading, or consulting a dermatologist for hair reduction treatments. Consult a dermatologist before starting any new skincare products to ensure they suit your skin type and concerns.

I'm noticing some minor redness and dry skin on my penis foreskin, and I'm a bit worried about it. Do you think applying Vaseline or paraffin wax could help, or should I try something else?
No ,better not to put.

Dr. Arjit I sent a photo of my condition - can you check if this needs surgery or if a cream treatment would work? Really worried about what the next steps should be
Please consult in person or share detailed photo for proper advice on surgery vs cream treatment.
