View allI'm a 22-year-old and I've noticed stretch marks all over my stomach. They're even extending down to my mons pubis area. When I touch them, they feel kind of hollow. I'm really worried they might get worse. Is having stretch marks in that area something to be concerned about?
Stretch marks on the mons pubis and outer vagina area are common and are usually not a threat to your health. To help reduce the appearance of stretch marks and prevent further increase, you can try using a topical cream containing Tretinoin. Apply a thin layer of Tretinoin cream on the affected areas once daily. Additionally, you can also use a moisturizer containing Hyaluronic Acid to keep the skin hydrated and improve its elasticity. Remember to consult with a dermatologist for a proper evaluation and treatment plan.

I'm dealing with a skin issue that started with white patches about two weeks ago. When I visited my doctor, I was advised to use melanocyl ointment. After using it for a week, Ive noticed a new problem: my skin is now developing dark patches instead. I'm really concerned about why this is happening. Is it normal for the skin to react this way to the ointment, or should I be worried about an allergic reaction or side effect?
Stop using Melanocyl ointment immediately and consult your doctor, as the black patches may be a sign of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) or melanin overstimulation, and alternative treatments may be necessary.

I've been experiencing these red rashes that seem to show up only in the evenings and last for about 23 hours. Its been happening for almost 3 months now, mostly on my face, but sometimes they appear on my back and foot too. They tend to vanish soon after I take an Allegra tablet but frustratingly pop up again after 48 hours when evening arrives. Weirdly, this only happens when I'm in Mumbai or on a working day, and it started around August. Last year, a 10-day course of Allegra seemed to solve the issue completely. Im really curious and a bit worried about why this is happening. What could be causing these rashes, and how can I get rid of them for good?
Clinsol gel for local application is advised for 3-6 weeks.
