Accepted Answer

It sounds like your jock itch may be resistant to over-the-counter treatments. Given that it's worsening and spreading, I recommend seeing a doctor for a more targeted antifungal treatment or possibly oral medications. A thorough examination will help determine the best approach to manage the condition effectively.

My bum has dark spots and some area around them have dark skin and I also have some stretch marks .. I am always confident about my body but these things in my butt make me uncomfortable . Can you give me a solution please ?

Accepted Answer

The dark spots and dark skin around them may be due to hyperpigmentation. You can use a cream containing hydroquinone and tretinoin to lighten the dark spots. Apply it once at night for a few weeks. For the stretch marks, you can use a cream containing retinoids and hyaluronic acid to improve their appearance. Remember to use sunscreen during the day to protect your skin.

Question 4

Described as: "adapalene microsohere plus clindamycin phosphate gel"

And clindamycin phosphate I. P. 
Equivalent to clindamycin 1% ww
Is it a powerful retinol and exfoilant?
Or can I layer it with a mild aha product?
I have dry ...

Accepted Answer

Adapalene Microsphere Plus Clindamycin Phosphate Gel is indeed a powerful retinol and exfoliant, containing 0.1% adapalene and 1% clindamycin phosphate. Adapalene helps control excess sebum production, removes dead skin cells, and opens pores, while clindamycin kills bacteria that cause acne.

For dry skin, it's essential to be cautious when layering retinoids with alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs). Start by applying a small amount of the gel and gradually increase as your skin becomes more tolerant.

If you still want to layer it with a mild AHA product, consider the following:

AHA Options
1. Glycolic Acid (5-7%): A gentle, water-soluble AHA that helps brighten and exfoliate the skin.
2. Lactic Acid (5-10%): A hydrating AHA that exfoliates and helps retain moisture.

Tips for Layering
1. Apply the AHA product first, allowing it to absorb fully.
2. Wait a few minutes before applying the Adapalene Microsphere Plus Clindamycin Phosphate Gel.
3. Start with a low concentration of AHA and gradually increase as your skin becomes more tolerant.

Question 5

Syringomas.. around eyes.. started spreading more.. do i need avoid any certain food or cosmetices or anything .. please please suggest

Accepted Answer

Syringomas are benign growths that can appear around the eyes, and it's essential to manage them to prevent further spreading.

Causes and Triggers

While the exact cause of syringomas is unknown, some potential triggers and contributing factors include:

1. Genetics: Family history can play a role in the development of syringomas.
2. Hormonal changes: Fluctuations in hormone levels, such as during pregnancy or menopause, may contribute to the growth of syringomas.
3. Cosmetic products: Certain skincare or makeup products can clog pores and irritate the skin, potentially exacerbating syringomas.

Dietary Changes

While there is no specific "syringoma diet," incorporating the following foods and nutrients may help:

1. Antioxidant-rich foods: Consume foods high in antioxidants, such as berries, leafy greens, and other fruits and vegetables, to help reduce inflammation and promote skin health.
2. Omega-3 fatty acids: Include sources of omega-3 fatty acids, like salmon, walnuts, and chia seeds, to support skin health and reduce inflammation.
3. Vitamin A-rich foods: Foods rich in vitamin A, such as sweet potatoes, carrots, and dark leafy greens, can help promote skin health and reduce the appearance of syringomas.

Question 6

I have pimple and dark marks of pimple in my face what can I do with that to get out of that. To stop pimple in my face

Accepted Answer

To treat pimples and dark marks on your face, you can use a combination of topical treatments. You can use a benzoyl peroxide gel (such as Oxy-5) for the pimples. Apply a thin layer on the affected areas once or twice daily. For the dark marks, you can use a topical retinoid cream (such as Retin-A) to help fade the discoloration. Apply a pea-sized amount on the dark marks at night. Additionally, using a sunscreen with at least SPF 30 daily can help prevent further darkening of the marks.
