I've noticed a dark horizontal line on my nose that just appeared over the last few days. I'm a bit worried and wondering how I can get rid of it. What might be causing this, and are there any remedies or steps I should take to clear it up?

It can be due to various reasons. some are due to skin irritation or pressure caused by wearing glasses, masks or other items that or against the nose. Repeated rubbing off the nose due to allergies can also cause this. Could be a result of mild trauma, Sun exposure or hormonal changes. So to treat and prevent that avoid all the things I mentioned before . Use a gentle cleanser to clean the area twice daily. Avoid harsh scrubbing. Moisturise the area. Is brightening creams with vitamin c, niacinamide or kojic acid.

View allI'm really worried because I've been getting these frequent rashes, and even though my blood test came back normal, my doctor said it might be a hidden allergy or stress-related. But I'm scared it could be something like HIV. How can I tell if these rashes are just from stress or if they're possibly HIV-related? They're itchy and red, and they started in December when I was super stressed about my exams. Can you help me figure this out?

I'm using Ethiglo face wash for about 20 days now because I'm hoping to lighten my skin tone, but I haven't noticed any changes yet. Could you recommend a good face wash for oily skin? And maybe a cream that would help too? Just trying to get the right products.

I've noticed that my mustache, which used to be really thick just a few months ago, is now thinning out. Lately, I've been shedding a lot of hairs, more than usual, and you can see the gaps between the hairs more clearly. It still looks okay for now, but I'm worried it might not grow back to how it was before. Do you think it will grow back? Any suggestions would be really helpful.
Yes.
