Eating eggs does not directly cause acne for most people. Acne is primarily influenced by factors like hormones, genetics, and skin care habits rather than specific foods. However, some individuals might notice that certain foods, including eggs, seem to worsen their acne, possibly due to personal sensitivities or allergies.

Here are a few key points to consider:

  1. Hormonal changes during adolescence can increase oil production in the skin, leading to acne.
  2. Dietary impact on acne varies; while some studies suggest high-glycemic foods or dairy might influence acne, eggs are not commonly linked.
  3. Individual reactions differ; if you suspect eggs worsen your skin, you might try eliminating them for a few weeks to see if there’s improvement.
  4. Maintaining a balanced diet, good skin hygiene, and consulting a dermatologist if acne is persistent or severe is important.

If you have concerns about your skin or diet, a healthcare professional can provide personalized advice and treatment options tailored to your needs.

I've been struggling with really bad tanning on my forehead for a while now. I've tried a bunch of things like kojic acid creams, Sabiglow, and I've even had a yellow peel done. I've also been taking Pinodin G for a couple of months. Right now, I'm using Tazret cream as recommended by my dermatologist, but honestly, I haven't noticed any difference. I work from home, so I'm not out in the sun much, but I still apply a light sunscreen. Can you suggest any effective anti-tanning creams, scrubs, or face packs? I'm really looking for something that works.

That could be a condition called Acanthosis where hyperpigmentation is the symptom,if your over wt wt loss would help for this condition,visit your dermatologist for evaluation and appropriate management.

I'm really worried because I've been dealing with rashes on my thighs and scrotum for a month now, and more recently there's this intense burning sensation on my scrotum. What could be causing this, and how can I get some relief?

You can use an antifungal cream such as Clotrimazole 1% cream. Apply a thin layer of the cream to the affected areas twice a day for 2-4 weeks. Additionally, keeping the area clean and dry, wearing loose-fitting clothing, and avoiding scratching the area can help with healing.

I've been using Sebamed facewash and Nioret Nanogel for the past 8 months with amazing results. My skin was glowing, and I didn't have any pimples. But starting in February, I suddenly got rashes, redness, and some irritation on my face. There was one day when I used a CC cream, and after removing it, my face turned red and was burning. I tried calming it down with Lacto Calamine but nothing worked. Now, every time I apply the Sebamed facewash, it feels like I've put red chili powder on my face. I've even got a red patch under my eye that feels like burned skin when I touch it. Could you help me figure out what's happening with my skin?
