I have the T zone type of skin. Oily forehead, oily nose and chin. The products that I'm using doesn't seem to work for my skin anymore. Can you please name me a few products that will work like the correct facewash, moisturiser and foundation cream? Also I have these ugly pimples on my back and shoulders. How can I get rid of that? I will really appreciate your advise. I want my healthy, beautiful and glowing skin back! Thank you!

Do they look like chicken pox and real sore? Can they also go in your scalp? What do you do other than go to your dr?

they are small, and pretty sore. I just got back from camping in the 100 degree heat, and a friend said they can sometimes be caused by the heat. Does that sound right? What could it be?

I have a rash/dryness on my foot. At first, it started off as what i think was athletes foot. Then, even after i started using medicine, a rash spread from my toes to my ankle just on the top of my foot. 2 of my toes are dry, scaly, cracked and swolen. The rash is red and has a lot of small bumps on it that have a clear liquid in them (i know because i have popped some with a needle, yea its nasty) The 2 toes that are swolen cracked etc. have really white skin between them that is very moist and that area also has those small bumps in them with clear liquid. Every part of it itches and burns. What is it and how can i cure it?

I have rosacea on my face. I have been taking metro gel and it has helped some what, but still some redness to the face. I was reading that rosacea may be a yeast infection and I started to apply Lamisil to my face and the redness has cleared up some what. It comes and goes, but now I can actually go some time without redness. Has anyone cured their rosacea? I heard about a product called Threelac. I actually think I might have a yeast infection (candida) on the face. I suffered from a bad internal yeast infection and cleared it up with a yeast free diet years ago. I think my body couldn't get rid of the yeast fast enough and it started to use my skin to get rid of it. That is just my theory. I am also allergic to yeast and wheat, but didn't find this out until after i turned 30. My body is probably full of dead yeast!

I recently worked in a job where I was in constant contact with brake cleaner and its vapors. Well during this position, I had a problem with my hands cracking horribly bad, bleeding, turning red, puffy, and hurting. I told my boss. He told me it was the hand soap. I just had to find one that didn’t do the problem. I never had any problems with hand soaps before in the industry. Not like this. But I do suspect it was possibly because the brake cleaner.
After a while they stopped braking out. However, the backs of my hands, especially knuckle area’s do not have the same feel and texture that they once had prior to this job.
I read the mds for the cleaner I was using. It said’s it causes “defatting of tissue” and “dermatitis”. What are these? Especially the defatting of tissue. What does it look like? Is it long term or permanent? Is their a way to test for this? How do I know I have these issues?
I am a little concerned about my constant exposure to this brake clean. They recently terminated my position with a bogus reason but I did noticed that we also changed brake clean formulas as well just recently. We were told it was because they couldn’t get it no more. But I think this wasn’t the case.
I also noticed my hands tend to tremble now as well. Being a photographer, this worries me. Especially since I invested a lot of time and money to get into it professionally.
I also been getting a lot of headaches as well.

About two weeks ago we went to a Casino here in CA. Now we went to go eat food, and about 3 hours later my formars had bumps little tiny red bumps they looked like a bunch of spider bites. Now at first I had just brushed it off as a sort of allergic reaction. But they are taking too long to go away, they seemed like they were fading thourghout the week, but now they are brown spots as though they are freckles, and I am beginning to become concerned, now I know it can't be skin cancer because I rarely even go outside. work from home in an isolated area, I am in shape weigh 144. Just im scared can anyone help me?? They are only on my forearms

there was one on my index finer and it turned darker in color and then popped like a pimple but it left this purple area of colored skin now....

My nephew gets bug bites on him every time he visits his mom. (Flea bites) He scratches them until they bleed and now he has horrible scars all over his arms and legs. What can we do to stop him from scratching. And how can we make the mom see that they are not caused by mosquitos. They look nothing like a mosquito bite.

She has a cat in the house. But she thinks because she "supposedly" gives it a bath weekly, it can't possibly have fleas. It has no flea collar. And she won't put one on it.

The visits are court ordered so we can't keep him from going to his mom's house.

He just need to learn to stop scratching. Any ideas?? He is 8 years old.

My grandson (2) has Atopic Eczema. He has huge red blotches on his skin, especially his arms and legs, a little on his tummy and some on his neck. These itch a lot. In the heat he gets clamy and it seems to worsen a bit. Any suggestions about treatment? He lives in Scandinavia. They haven't managed to get this cleared-uo. Could it be an allergy to food or something else? Do you have any suggestions for treatment? (They have been to doctors and homeopaths.) He is normal and active, so this doesn't affect him in that way. Thanks.

Sometimes my fingers swell up. Now this is NOT like normal edema; it will usually only be one or two sections (between each finger joint) at a time, and the swollen portions become red and VERY itchy and hot to the touch. My skin gets so tight it feels like it's going to burst. After a while, it goes away. I don't have any circulatory problems, and I don't eat much salt, so I don't think it's anything like that. It happens in all types of weather, and it doesn't matter how long or how short of a time I've been sitting or walking around. It's kind of scary! My doctor referred me to a dermatologist, but my appointment is months away. Anybody ever heard of anything like this?

I have a couple of moles on my face. One is starting to stick out a little. The other one is flat but I don't like it. What is the procedure for removing a mole? Does it have to be cancerous for insurance to cover the removal?
