I've noticed a dark spot on my nose and mouth, and I'm trying to figure out what's causing it. Could it be related to dandruff or maybe whiteheads on my nose? I'm really curious to understand why this is happening and how I might be able to manage it. Any advice would be really helpful.

To control dark spots on your nose and mouth, you can consider using a topical cream containing hydroquinone, retinoids, and corticosteroids. Additionally, using sunscreen with a high SPF daily can help prevent further darkening of the spots. It is also important to maintain a good skincare routine, including gentle cleansing and exfoliation. For dandruff or whiteheads on the nose, you can use anti-dandruff shampoos containing ketoconazole or selenium sulfide. For whiteheads, topical treatments containing salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide can be effective. Make sure to follow the recommended dosage and instructions provided on the product packaging.

View allI'm dealing with this dry and rough skin issue on my back, right around my spine. The rough patches are starting to spread out over more of my back, and it gets really itchy if I don't apply any skin cream like Fourderm. What's going on, and should I be worried about it spreading further?
That could be fungal infection which needs both oral and topical antifungal medications and personal hygiene is more important for such condition.

I've been having some trouble since I got a facial and waxing done. My face has these really bad patches now, and the left cheek feels super tight. I'm starting to think it might be a chemical burn. I tried using ice since last night, but it hasn't really made a difference. Could you let me know what else I should do?
