I'm really worried because I used apple cider vinegar on my face, and it burned my skin and turned it dark brown. After about 45 days, the burned scab came off, but now there's a whitish-pink mark left on my face. I'm scared it might scar permanently. I'm a 31-year-old female, and I really need help to figure out how to deal with this. Do you think this mark will go away, or should I be doing something specific to help it heal?

I've been using Zole F for my scrotal dermatitis for a couple of days now, and I'm starting to worry because I've been sweating a lot where I applied it. The skin around that area has gotten darker, and now the top layer is peeling. Is this something I should be concerned about? Does it sound normal to you?

Usually such infections will heal with Hyper Pigmentation,no need to worry that will become normal,follow your docotros advice

I'm really concerned about a new mole I found behind my left ear. I saw a dermatologist and she told me its not cancerous, thankfully. She gave me a mole removal cream, and I've been using it for a few days now. It looks like it's getting smaller, which is a relief, but it barely itches. Im still worried if there's any risk of cancer. Also, if it completely fades away, should I still be worried down the line?
