I'm trying to figure out when I can get a cardiac activity scan. My last menstrual period was on December 30th, 2020. Can you help me understand when it's the right time to schedule that scan?

I've had dark knees and elbows for as long as I can remember, and it's really becoming a hassle, especially when I want to wear skirts, sleeveless tops, or dresses. I'm curious if there's any effective treatment to lighten these dark spots.

Dark knees and elbows can be frustrating. Don't worry, there are treatments to help: *Topical Treatments* 1. *Moisturizers*: Use rich moisturizers containing shea butter, coconut oil, or olive oil. 2. *Exfoliating creams*: Creams with alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs) or beta-hydroxy acids (BHAs) help remove dead skin cells. 3. *Skin brightening creams*: Creams containing ingredients like kojic acid, vitamin C, or niacinamide can help reduce hyperpigmentation. *Home Remedies* 1. *Sugar scrub*: Exfoliate with a sugar scrub to remove dead skin cells. 2. *Lemon juice*: Apply lemon juice to help brighten the skin. 3. *Turmeric paste*: Mix turmeric powder with lemon juice or yogurt to create a paste that can help reduce hyperpigmentation. *Professional Treatments* 1. *Chemical peels*: A dermatologist can perform chemical peels to exfoliate the skin and reduce hyperpigmentation. 2. *Microdermabrasion*: This non-invasive exfoliating treatment can help improve skin texture and tone. 3. *Laser therapy*: Laser treatments can help reduce hyperpigmentation and improve skin texture.

I've got this painful pimple near my nipple, and I think it started because of an ingrown hair. I'm really worried about it and not sure what to do next. Should I see a doctor for something like this, or is there anything I can try at home to make it go away and prevent any infection?

I've been dealing with severe itching around my panty lines, and I'm seeing these round ring-shaped boils. The skin around the itchy area is also turning darker. I've been trying to keep it dry, and this has been going on for about 2 weeks now. I'm using SURFAZSN cream, and if I skip applying it, things just get worse. Can you help me figure out what's happening and what I should do?
