I've noticed a pretty big red pimple under my left breast. It's turned dark now, and I've got a few smaller red pimples nearby. I'm really scared this might be something serious like breast cancer. I started exercising almost every day, but I'm not wearing a sports bra, just a regular tight one. Could the sweat and friction from that be causing these to show up under just one breast?

Don't worry, I'm here to help you figure out what might be going on. The symptoms you're describing - a red pimple under your left breast that's turned dark, with other small red pimples nearby - are unlikely to be breast cancer. Breast cancer typically presents as a lump or thickening in the breast tissue, not as pimples or skin lesions [1). That being said, it's always a good idea to get any new or changing skin symptoms checked out by a doctor. They can take a closer look and provide a proper diagnosis. As for the possible causes, sweat and friction from exercising and wearing a tight bra could definitely contribute to skin irritation and pimples in that area.

I'm a 23-year-old girl, and I've been on mDR TB medication for the past 10 months. I've lost about 90% of my hair, and I'm really worried. Will my hair grow back after I'm done with the medication? Can I regain my hair? I'm feeling really depressed about this.

I've been having some trouble with itching and dryness around the pubic area for the last few days. I tried washing with Dettol and used Vaseline petroleum jelly and coconut oil, which helped a bit, but the sides where the panties sit still hurt like they would if they were too tight. The pain has gone down now, but the dryness and a little bit of itching are still there. What should I do to get rid of this?

For relief from itching, dryness, and discomfort in the pubic area, continue maintaining good hygiene, and consider applying a fragrance-free, hypoallergenic moisturizer or a cream containing urea or hyaluronic acid to soothe and lock in moisture; additionally, wear breathable, loose-fitting clothing, avoid tight-fitting panties, and refrain from using harsh soaps or douching, as these can exacerbate dryness and irritation.
