I've noticed these black marks on my nose that have been sticking around for about a month now. Could you recommend any creams or treatments that might help get rid of them?

View allI've been dealing with perioral hyperpigmentation on my cheeks, and it turns out my sister has the same issue. My doctor suggested I use Kozilite H cream with hydroquinone 2%. Do you think it's safe for my face, and how long should I stick with this treatment? Also, I've had really dark circles since I was a kid, so it's kind of a heredity thing. I don't want to put any hydroquinone cream around my eyes. Could you recommend a good, non-irritating under-eye cream to help reduce them?
1. Hydroquinone 2% is generally safe for short-term use (3-6 months) on the face, but prolonged use can lead to ochronosis, skin thinning, or rebound hyperpigmentation; use Kozilite-H cream as directed by your doctor, and monitor for any adverse effects. 2. For dark circles, consider a non-irritating, hydroquinone-free under-eye cream containing ingredients like caffeine, peptides, vitamin K, or niacinamide; some good options include Kama Ayurveda Under Eye Cream, La Roche-Posay Pigmentclar Eye Cream, or Olay Eyes Deep Hydrating Eye Gel.

I had this accident about two and a half months ago, and now that the scab's gone, I'm left with this white patch of skin where the injury was more severe. I'm wondering if this will heal naturally. Also, this whitish skin has some red marks in places, and in some areas, the skin is raised. Should I be worried or is this part of the healing process?
Yes thats normal and will heal with time no need to worry

I'm dealing with really swollen and painful armpits for about a week now. There's nothing visible except for the swelling. Should I be worried, or is there something specific I should be doing or looking out for?
Swollen and painful armpits for a week warrant medical attention; possible causes include infected lymph nodes, hidradenitis suppurativa, or an allergic reaction; apply warm compresses to reduce discomfort and schedule an appointment with a doctor, who may prescribe antibiotics or further testing, such as a biopsy or ultrasound, to determine the underlying cause.
