I've noticed these small circular indentations on both sides of the center of my chest, and the skin around them is kind of reddish. It feels a little weird when I breathe, but otherwise, it's not bothering me much. The itching only gets worse when I'm out in the sun. Is this something I should be worried about? What's causing it? Could it have anything to do with a condition known as "having a of 16084"?

View allI'm really struggling with this skin disease I've had for years. I've attached a photo so you can see what's going on. Could you help me figure out a solution?
I see that you are suffering from a skin disease. Based on the photograph you have attached, it appears to be psoriasis. I recommend using topical corticosteroids such as Clobetasol propionate cream twice daily on the affected areas. In addition, you can also use coal tar preparations like Tegrin cream or ointment. For severe cases, you may need oral medications like Methotrexate or Acitretin. However, these should be taken under the guidance of a dermatologist. Please consult a dermatologist for a proper evaluation and treatment plan.

I'm dealing with a recurring itching issue in my scrotum that's been going on for about three years. I noticed it went away when I used dexoderm cream, but now it's coming back. It's not overwhelming, but it can get pretty uncomfortable at times. What could be causing this, and should I keep using the same cream or try something else?
It sounds like you may be experiencing a recurring fungal infection. I recommend using an antifungal cream like Lotrimin Ultra twice a day for 2 weeks. Additionally, keeping the area clean and dry, wearing loose-fitting underwear, and avoiding irritants like scented soaps can help prevent further irritation.

I'm a brown-skinned girl and my dermatologist suggested I use KOJIGLO FORTE CREAM for the pigmentation around my mouth. I noticed it has 2% Hydroquinone, and I'm a bit worried about whether it's safe. Could it possibly make my pigmentation worse or darker? Can you help me understand if it's okay to use this cream?
KOJIGLO FORTE CREAM contains 2% HYDROQUINONE which is commonly used to lighten dark patches of skin. It is generally safe to use for treating pigmentation issues when used as directed by a healthcare professional. However, prolonged and excessive use of hydroquinone can lead to side effects such as skin darkening, redness, or irritation. To ensure safe use of KOJIGLO FORTE CREAM, it is important to follow your dermatologist's instructions regarding the frequency and duration of application. It is also recommended to use sunscreen during the day to protect your skin from further pigmentation. If you experience any severe side effects or worsening of pigmentation, please consult your dermatologist for further guidance.
