Question 1

I used Melas cream for 3-4 days, but I stopped using it and now my skin is still peeling. How can I help my skin recover? What cream should I use to heal it?

Accepted Answer

After stopping the use of Melas, it is important to allow your skin to recover. You can use a gentle moisturizing cream containing ingredients like aloe vera or hyaluronic acid to help soothe and hydrate your skin. Additionally, you can use a mild steroid cream like hydrocortisone 1% to reduce inflammation and promote healing. Make sure to apply these creams as directed by the manufacturer or your healthcare provider. It is also important to protect your skin from further damage by avoiding sun exposure and using a broad-spectrum sunscreen.

Accepted Answer

A sudden red mark on the neck that doesn't hurt or itch could be from minor trauma (like scratching), an insect bite, or a skin reaction. Other possibilities include an allergic reaction. If it doesnt improve or new symptoms appear, consider seeing a doctor for evaluation to rule out other causes like dermatitis or skin conditions.

Question 5

As i m 27 yrs of age , i still dont have Beard. The moustache is slightly visible but Beard is still not growing. Can you kindly tell me , is it any serious problem and how can i overcome these ???

Accepted Answer

Not having a full beard at 27 is usually not a serious problem. Genetics play a major role in facial hair growth. Some men naturally have less facial hair due to lower levels of androgens or hair follicle sensitivity. To encourage growth, you could try improving your diet, getting enough sleep, and exercising regularly. Minoxidil (under medical guidance) and biotin supplements are sometimes recommended but consult a dermatologist to explore safe options for you.

Question 6

Hi, Im a female and Ive had jock itch since July 2017, so its been more than 2 months now. I admit I didnt take it seriously until recently, but for the past week, Ive been applying Betadine to the area every 3-4 hours (except when Im sleeping). The ...

Accepted Answer

Applying betadine may help with disinfection, but for the treatment of jock itch, it is important to use antifungal medication. I recommend using an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole 1% cream. Additionally, you can take oral antifungal medication like Fluconazole. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry, wear loose-fitting clothes, and avoid sharing towels or clothing to prevent spreading the infection.
