View allI've been dealing with an issue on my face and underarms for about a year now. I've tried using luliconazole and ketoconazole ointments, and even took oral tablets like onecan and itraconazole, but nothing seems to fully solve the problem. The ketoconazole ointment seems to control it for a bit, but then it just comes back. Can you please help me figure out what's going on?
That could be fungal infection which needs both oral and topical antifungal medications and personal hygiene is more important for such condition.

I've got a mark on my face from some stitches and I'm really hoping it can be removed. Could you please let me know if that's possible and what the options might be? I'm quite concerned about it.
Stitch marks on the face can be challenging to completely remove, but various treatments can help minimize their appearance; consider consulting a dermatologist or plastic surgeon for options like: topical silicone gel or sheeting, steroid injections, laser therapy, microneedling, or chemical peels to help flatten and fade the scars.

I'm really curious about using Fair & Lovely, Vicco turmeric cream, and Himalaya fairness cream on my face. Are these creams safe for facial skin, and which one would you recommend as the best option? I've heard different things and just want to make sure I'm choosing the right one for my skin. Any advice would be great!
Among these, Vicco turmeric cream is considered safer as it contains natural ingredients like turmeric which has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. It is best to use Vicco turmeric cream for the face. Apply a thin layer of the cream on the face once or twice daily for best results.
