I've had white patches on my skin for about 10 years now and they're stable, not spreading. Thinking about getting surgery to treat them but worried if it'll leave scars on my face or the treated areas. Should I go for surgery or stick with medicines for better results?

Question

I'm dealing with a 2nd degree burn on my leg from touching a two-wheeler silencer. It's been 10 days and I'm still experiencing pain and irritation. I showed it to a skin doctor but I'm wondering if there's anything else I should be doing to help it heal faster. Any advice?

I've been feeling a lot of heat on my scalp lately, like my head's hot and there's this weird sensation I can't quite put my finger on. It's making me feel a bit insecure. Any thoughts on what could be going on?

Question

I've got some hyperpigmentation going on around my eyes and mouth, and I remember my doctor once recommended aziderm 10 for acne spots. So here's my question: Can I use aziderm for these dark circles under my eyes? Is it even safe to use in that area? Any tips on how and when I should apply it would be great!
