Rash on hands can be cause by Allergens or irritants in the surrounding air or on the article handled. It can also be due to common skin conditions such as Eczema or Viral Shingles.

I'm noticing more facial hair after using the minoxidil aminexil topical solution 5% for my hair loss issue. Should I be worried about this? Is it a common side effect or does it mean something else is happening? How can I manage or prevent this from happening? Any advice would be appreciated!

I'm allergic to Dettol and Savlon and whenever I use them on my skin, I get rashes and red spots. A few days ago, I had a skin prick allergy test and they cleaned my skin with something that probably had the same ingredient, so I've ended up with really itchy red rashes and spots on both my forearms. Do you think this could be causing a more severe reaction? How should I treat these rashes, and is there anything I can do to prevent this from happening again in the future?

This is quite rare.. But you are allergic to antiseptic solution itself.. So should avoid it.. Check if you are allergic to soap or not?? Some people are allergic to different things.. Whenever you go to hospital you must open up about this allergiec history......

I'm asking for a friend who's naturally very dark-skinned due to her genes, and she's considering a melanin reduction procedure. I know this isn't super common in India, and there seems to be a lack of information about it. What are the risks and side effects she should be aware of, and how much does it typically cost? Also, what steps does she need to take to go through with this?
