Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Small, red pinhead likenrashes which seem to be deeply embedded in skin. The rash cannot be felt by running our hand across it.

View allI'm dealing with super sensitive skin and I've been trying out different creams. My neighbor suggested I try Skin Lite cream, and I've been using it once a day in the evening for about three weeks now. At first, everything was fine and my skin got a bit fairer. But during the second week, my face started getting irritated every time I washed it with Dove. Now, in the third week, I'm noticing some white patches on my face. Should I keep using the cream or is it best to stop?

I've been dealing with genital ringworm and initially, it was incredibly itchy. After seeing a doctor and getting the right medication, the itchiness has eased up. But I'm really worried about the scars that are still there. It's been three months, and they just don't seem to be going away. What can I do to help clear these scars up?
To help clear the scars left from genital ringworm, you can use a topical antifungal cream containing Clotrimazole 1% twice daily on the affected area. In addition, you can also apply a skin lightening cream containing Hydroquinone 4% once daily to help fade the scars. Make sure to apply sunscreen during the day to protect the skin. If the scars persist or worsen, consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and treatment.

Can you help me out with getting rid of my tan? The color of my face and inner body doesnt match my hands at all. My sisters wedding is in April, and I really want to look my best. I've tried a bunch of creams from ads but none of them seem to be working.
