I already moisturise the area twice a day and exfoliate once every 2 days. Is there anything further that I can do as the marks are unsightly?

I don't remember it being that dark, but my doctor mentioned it yesterday and I have to decide whether to see a dermatologist about it. It's about the size of the head of a stick-pin, very small. Should I be worried enough about it to have it checked out? My doctor seemed kind of unworried about it and left it up to me.....Help!

My seven year old boy has had like some type of fungi on his right thumb finger for like three or four months now. I have taken him to different doctors, his regular and then an allergy specialist where he goes already.Both have tried creams and antibiotics but they seem to not have worked.For the first few days the finger will get better but it will come back, my son says that it hurts whenver I put the "hydroxide cleaning liquid" on it and when he washes his hands.It is peeling right now, which is what it does often.At one point it got real yucky and had greenish stuff around it, and sorry that it sounds nasty but it is really concerning me because it does not get any better not matter what the doctor's give him.I've had to wrap it up with gauze and keep it filled with creams that have been sent to him, but the finger again is not completely better.Whta do you think it could be? I am trying to get him referred to a specialist though. Please advise.

I'm doing a study of scars.

I googled imaged it and all that came up were nasty blob like scars.

I'm looking for big scars as a result of being cut by blades or from falling.

Can you tell me about the different types of scars and how they are formed.

I'm looking particularly for battle scars and body formations as a result of travel like calisces or nasty things -I want to know how they are formed and how to get rid of them or how to prevent them.

Please link me to sites or images.
scars on the torso back face or shoulders in particular please.
particularly ones like these

How do you determine which one you have? They all seem to have the same symptoms.

Following are the facts about my skin:
1)I have a fair complexion, but I’m highly allergic to dust.
2)Whenever I come in contact with dust, only my facial skin starts to burn. At the same time, I don’t feel any sort of irritation on the skin of my other body parts like neck, hands, ears e.t.c except my facial skin.
3)THERE IS NO CHARM OR GLOW ON MY SKIN.
4)I have been constantly suffering from constipation problems. Though; I drink lots of water through out the day.
5)Compare to my face, the skin of my hands and rest of the body is fairer which I do not understand. Also, the color of my facial skin gets red during the day.
6)I have got the white and black heads on the nose, cheeks and on the under lips, which always come out again when I peel if out with black head remover.
7) Sometimes the skin looks like if it is burnt.
8) My face is always covered when I am out. I use sunscreen lotion
9) I HAVE THE SMALL PORES ON MY CHEEKS WHICH DO NOT LOOK GOOD.
Please suggest what to do

Our insurance wouldn't cover it... but luckily his biological dad's covered a lot of it...

What do people do when they need a prescription they can't afford?

Every year around this time (winter) I get rashes that itch really badly! I've been to the doctors a few times and they just said my skin is sensitive ... but I don't understand if it's the weather .. or something that causes it because it's only once a year around this time. The rashes are usually in places that I have tight clothing ... for example where my jeans tighten at my waist or my bra strap area. It's very frustrating because sometimes the rashes start peeling and leave ltitle scars. The scars do go away but it's still very annoying and I want to know what causes them. I have ointment and cream but it only reduces the itching but doesnt make it go away. Is there anything else I can?? what's wrong with me!

here is a blurry picture

i went laser bowling the other day (i hate it, but it seems to be the only way to bowl these days)

and i noticed that under the black like the skin on my hads had weird white blotches all over. it coverd all of both my palms and on to the edges of the fingers and hands.....

i tried washing my hands... no dice.... i tried scratching it, and again, didnt help... the skin still had the white blotches.

since it is only on my hands, im hoping that i just held soemthing weird recently... but if thats the case, i dont get why it wouldnt wash or rub out... hmmm weird

so, do i have cancer? or am i so white that i glow under a black light?
