My daughter is really struggling with lice and nits, and it's been a nightmare for us. We've tried using Mediker for a whole month now, but it doesn't seem to be doing the trick. I'm really worried and wondering if you could suggest something that works more quickly and provides a permanent solution.

I'm dealing with some skin issues and have a noticeable black spot on my face. I'm considering using Melacare cream and Sunstop 30 cream. Do you think these products would be effective for this kind of problem, or is there something else you would recommend? I'm a bit worried about any potential side effects too.

I've just moved to Pune from the UK after living there for five years, and it's only been about four months. Recently, I've developed a skin issue. For the last three weeks, I've noticed a bump on the shaft of my penis. It isn't painful, but it's concerning me. Could this be related to the weather change or maybe some kind of disease?

That needs evaluation,visit dermatologist for the same
