Question 2

My butt and knees are darker than the rest of my body, and I feel like it looks unappealing. I have a brown complexion, and Im wondering what I can do to even out the tone. Any suggestions?

Accepted Answer

To help even out the skin tone on your buttocks and knees, you can consider using a skin lightening cream that contains ingredients like hydroquinone, kojic acid, or alpha arbutin. These ingredients can help lighten dark areas of the skin and promote a more even tone. You can try using a cream like Meladerm or Ambi Fade Cream, applying it to the affected areas once or twice a day as directed. Additionally, make sure to exfoliate the skin regularly to remove dead skin cells and promote skin renewal. Remember to use sunscreen on these areas to prevent further darkening from sun exposure.

Accepted Answer

It sounds like you may have a chronic fungal infection causing the jock itch and skin discoloration. To treat this, I recommend using an antifungal cream containing Clotrimazole. You can apply it twice daily to the affected areas for at least 2 weeks. In addition, taking oral antifungal medication like Fluconazole may also be necessary in severe cases. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry to prevent further infection. To help restore the original skin color, you can use a skin lightening cream containing Hydroquinone. Apply a thin layer to the darkened areas once daily, preferably at night.

1. *Apply Acnewar gel*: Directly apply a thin layer of Acnewar gel to the affected areas.
