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'm using Ilumax skin brightening cream by Ajanta to help with tanning and get a fairer skin tone. I'm curious, how long does it usually take to start seeing results with this cream? Also, how long should I continue using it to maintain the fairness? I'm a bit worried about what happens after I stop using the cream. Will my skin get darker again? Any advice would be really appreciated.

Candid cream for local application is advised, once a day,at bed time for 2 weeks is advised.

I was cleaning my private parts, specifically the penis and scrotum, using Dettol and now the skin on my scrotum is really dry and a bit discolored. I've also noticed it's a lot less sensitive in that area. Should I be worried, and will it get better on its own in a few days?

Potential Underlying Causes_ 1. _Nutritional deficiencies_: Deficiencies in vitamin B12, iron, or folic acid can contribute to recurring mouth ulcers. 2. _Autoimmune disorders_: Conditions like lichen planus, pemphigus, or Behet's disease can cause persistent mouth ulcers. 3. _Hormonal changes_: Hormonal fluctuations during menstruation, pregnancy, or menopause can lead to mouth ulcers. 4. _Medication side effects_: Certain medications, such as NSAIDs, beta-blockers, or chemotherapy, can cause mouth ulcers. _Additional Treatment Options_ 1. _Topical corticosteroids_: Apply topical corticosteroids, like triamcinolone or clobetasol, to reduce inflammation and promote healing. 2. _Immune-modulating medications_: Consider medications like colchicine or pentoxifylline to modulate the immune system and reduce inflammation. 3. _Antiviral or antibacterial medications_: If your healthcare provider suspects a viral or bacterial infection, they may prescribe antiviral or antibacterial medications. 4. _Nutritional supplements_: Ensure adequate nutrition by taking supplements like vitamin B12, iron, or folic acid, as recommended by your healthcare provider. _Further Evaluation_ 1. _Consult a specialist_: Consider consulting an oral medicine specialist, dermatologist, or immunologist for further evaluation and guidance. 2. _Biopsy or laboratory tests_: Your healthcare provider may recommend a biopsy or laboratory tests to rule out underlying conditions.

Can I get my half sleeve tattoo on my left hand removed completely in one go with plastic surgery or something similar If that's possible, how much would it cost If not, what's the shortest time it could take and what's the estimated cost for that

It's unlikely you can remove a half-sleeve tattoo in a single session using plastic surgery or similar methods. Laser tattoo removal is the most common and effective method, but it typically requires multiple sessions. Surgical removal, like skin grafting, can leave scars and is best for larger tattoos
