Is Vaseline good for face?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Vaseline is a Petroleum Jelly based moisturiser. Though a layer of vaseline helps in locking in moisture it can trigger outbreaks if you have acne prone skin.

View allI'm really worried about my skin and would love some advice on how to improve it naturally. I'm trying to avoid cosmetics but I have some dark spots I'd really like to clear up and I really want my skin to have that natural glow. What are some things I could be doing or avoiding to help with this?
To get good skin and a glowing face without using cosmetics, you can start by maintaining a healthy diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. Drinking plenty of water helps to keep your skin hydrated and flush out toxins. Regular exercise also improves blood circulation, which can give your skin a healthy glow. Protect your skin from the sun by using sunscreen daily and wearing protective clothing. To remove dark spots, you can try using products containing ingredients like hydroquinone, retinoids, or vitamin C. These can help lighten dark spots and even out your skin tone. Additionally, incorporating a skincare routine with products like a gentle cleanser, moisturizer, and exfoliant can help improve the overall appearance of your skin.

I've been having these painful bumps, like funsi or foda, popping up on various parts of my body lately. I'm kind of worried because they hurt a lot, and when I visited a local doctor, they mentioned something about it being linked to higher TLC and ESR levels. I'm not sure what all this means. Could you please help me understand if this is really the cause and how I can deal with it?

I'm worried because I've noticed these black lines under my nails that run from the tip to the end. I heard it could be a type of skin cancer. If I decide to get it removed, will that treat it? I'm also curious about my chances of recovery. The lines are not very dark, more like a light black. How much would a nail biopsy typically cost, and are there any foods I should steer clear of? What might be causing these lines, and what's the best way for me to go about getting treatment?
Don't worry, having black lines beneath your nails doesn't necessarily mean you have skin cancer. In Indians and people with darker skin tones, these lines are quite common and usually harmless . However, it's always best to get a professional opinion to rule out any underlying conditions.
