View allI'm dealing with a dry skin issue that persists even during the summer, and if I forget to use moisturizer, the situation becomes quite severe. I've already seen a few doctors around here, but unfortunately, I haven't noticed any improvement. After doing some research online, I found that my symptoms align with ichthyosis vulgaris, and I'm really worried about this condition. Could you offer some advice or guidance?

I'm really worried about these dark toe knuckles I've had for about 34 years. Last year, I tried using HALOXS ointment, and while it seemed to work initially, it only helped for a few days. Now it doesn't seem to do anything and has even made my skin color uneven. I'm really hoping for a permanent solution to this. Any advice?

I'm really curious about using barium sulfate soap for hair removal at home. Is it safe for the skin? I'd love to hear your thoughts on it.
Using barium sulfate soap for hair removal at home is not safe for the skin. It can cause irritation, dryness, and even chemical burns. I recommend avoiding its use and opting for safer hair removal methods such as shaving, waxing, or using depilatory creams."
