I've noticed these grey patches on my leg and foot. They aren't causing any itching or discomfort, but I'm a bit worried about whether they need treatment or if I should see someone about them. Should I be concerned?

I've recently noticed some brown spots appearing in my underarms. At first, there were about 12, and they weren't causing any issues like itching or irritation. But now there are 34, and it's got me really concerned. My dad experienced something similar, and it ended up spreading throughout the entire underarm area. I'm really worried about this and would love to know the possible causes and how I can prevent it from getting worse. Could you help me understand what's going on?

I'm a bit unsure about which to use for my woundshould I go with soframycin or cipladine powder? I usually clean the wound with hot water and Dettol, then let it dry before applying the powder. But when I clean it again the next day, it's kind of tricky. The wound is still wet, and there's some fluid coming out. Would using soframycin be a better option in this case?

It sounds like you're dealing with a wound that's still in the healing process and is somewhat moist, which is quite common in the initial stages of healing.Both can be effective, but Soframycin is usually recommended for burns, surgical wounds, or where moisture needs to be controlled, as it helps with tissue regeneration without drying the wound too much.

I've been using Melamet cream for dark spot removal, and I saw it contains Hydroquinone, Tretinoin, and Mometasone Furoate. I'm a bit concerned about whether it's safe to use this regularly on my face. Could you share some advice on this?
