What causes small white bumps on the surface of the bottom lip?

Often confused and assumed to be the early signs of STIs it is more often than not a case of "Fordyce Spots", the condition is basically small sebaceous oil glands which get blocked and cause spots. Not helping with the confusion is that in men these spots can also be found on the gland of the penis.

As this is a benign condition there's no set 'cure', a common recommendation are the same as treating regular spots: Try to open the pores in your lips with a hot towel when washing your face. If you're really bothered by the spots, or if you're unsure if this is the correct diagnosis, it is still best to seek help and advice from a GP or dermatologist [the latter will usually be more accurate, due to the confined field of research].

I'm assuming you're talking about whitening creams? I have heard about papaya soaps. There are creams that make your skin lighter, but not by a whole lot.

Is there cure for pityriasis lichenoides chronica in ayurveda?

  • There is no "cure" for vitiligo there are treatments such as UVA light and other such treatments but they are not guaranteed to work. The larger area the vitiligo covers the more difficult it is to treat it because there are so few treatments. (It also depends where you are as too what treatment you are given or you can get.) Dubia has good treatments I hear. The UK also has some good cover creme and other treatments.
  • The person who said that there isnor sure is wrong. There is no disease uncurable in this health world. There is a herbal formula which works at its best to relieve the symptoms of vitilgo. Pigmento tablets are the blessing of ayurveda that is being created after extensive researches done by well renowned Ayurvedic doctors and research scholars. Pigmento is extremely effective in treating problems like leucoderma, white patches, virtiligo and uneven pigmentations that is making you appear bad and exceptional among many.
  • I am an MD {AYURVEDA} and there is very effective treatment of Vitiligo in Ayurveda. Blood Purifiers : As Svitra (Vitiligo) is a disease of Rakta Vikrati(Auto immune disorder)Therefore blood purifying drugs like Curcuma longa ; Eclipta Alba ;Tinospora Cordifolia ; Hemidascus indicus; Acacia catechu; Acaranthes aspera are used to redress the blood morbidity. B. Ras Aushadhi (Herbo-mineral drugs): it includes chiefly Ras Manikya, Taal Sindur, Sameer Pannag Ras, and Talkeshwar Ras. These drugs act like an Immuno Supressant and usually used in those patient where spread of disease is very fast to arrest the spread of disease. TAMRA Bhasm; KASHISH Bhasm; are also used to initiate repigmentation.
After initiation of repigmentation; treatment must be continued till the desired complete repigmentation of all the lesions is achieved. But some stubborn lesions especially of mucosal surface of palms and fingers tips; sometimes respond very poorly or incomplete.

These residual re-pigmented area can be subjected to camouflage. This paste, made from Mehndi (Henna) leaves, is applied to the affected area. It is made from root of Plumbago Zeylenica in absolute alcohol and is painted over skin. This imparts natural colour which last for two or four days.

  • I have cured a number of Vitiligo / Leucoderma / white patches cases with the help of newly invented Ayurveda scanning technology, known as Electro Tridosha Graphy ; ETG AyurvedaScan system. Treatment basing on the line of the findings of the ETG AyurvedaScan Report cures from the internal to perifery.In my cases , I have seen that most of the patients suffering from internal disorders, which are not traceable and the physican makes mistakes to cure the deviation of the health, unknowingly because of the lack of correct diagnosis.

ETG AyurvedaScan provides a correct picture of the patient and thus correct diagnosis selects the right drugs to cure the Vitiligo or any ailments.

Yes, it takes a time say, few months to one or two years for total cure, but cure is certain snd promised.

Fleas and other biting insects have a certain chemical protein in their saliva that breaks down the host's blood.

How do you prevent cuts and pimples after shaving pubic hair for women and how long would it take to heal?

The hair on the pubic region is very coarse and it is hard to shave and this is why you get bumps and pimples, it is a very sensitive place. There is a great shave gel from Avon that is brilliant for these types of things. It is called 'SKIN SO SOFT Fresh and Smooth Silky stay shave gel'. See related links below to buy it online. I recommend to get this because it really works and you will notice the difference. I would also recommend that you shave with the direction of the hair because if you shave against it that this is where you get hurt.

Does Lexapro cause acne?

The PI sheet for Lexapro doesn't list acne as a side-effect, but many who've taken the drug state that, for them, it has resulted in moderate to severe acne. This is true for me.

I've never had this problem before. It's depressing.
