I've had this small skin tag near my anus for about 23 years. It's not a hemorrhoid because it doesnt hurt, but it does swell up a bit during bowel movements. Im really curious to know if this is actually a skin tag or if it could be something else. Also, how can I get it removed?

View allI'm dealing with some black patches around my chin, right below my mouth, and near my nose and lips. They sometimes peel off, leaving dry skin, but right now they're just dark spots. I was told by a dermatologist a year ago that it might be seborrheic melanosis, but the treatment she suggested didn't work, and she mentioned it can't be treated permanently. It had lightened up a bit, but now it's dark again. Is there any way to treat this permanently?
this needs physical examination and appropriate approach,visit dermatologist for the same, do not try to squeeze it or scratch it

I've noticed tiny black specks or dots on my skin over the last three weeks, even after I wipe. They're really small but keep appearing. Should I be worried about this?

I'm using this Kozicare skin whitening soap with ingredients like Kozic acid, Glutathione, Arbutin, and Vitamins C and E. It's really moisturized and feels great, but I'm concerned about a few things. Is it safe for regular use, and does it really lighten the skin as advertised? I've seen some YouTube videos mentioning it might only temporarily lighten the skin, and then it goes back to normal. Are there possibly better options out there? I'm also curious whether it's suitable for sensitive skin types. And does the Kozicare cream work for lightening skin tone and dark patches?
Skin lightning is not straightforward and can cause side-effects if taken without prescriptions, for more appropriate management of dark patches visit a Dermatologist
