Doctors’ responses

Dr. Mickey Patel
I am a consultant Physician with about 8 years of work after my MBBS and another year post MD — which doesn’t sound like a long time until you start counting the hours in clinics, hospitals, and on-call nights. My training and practice have taken me through all kinds of settings, from busy outpatient departments to ward rounds that stretched late into the night. Over the years, I’ve worked both offline in traditional hospital environments and also online on platfory like Practo — which, honestly, changed the way I see patient care. In-person consults give you body language, subtle signs, that little pause before answering a question. Online care pushes you to listen differently, to pick up clues from how someone explains their symptoms without seeing them in person. It’s not easier or harder, just different. I’ve learned to adapt my approach — detailed history taking, targeted questions, and sometimes even asking the same thing twice in a slightly different way to be sure nothing important is left out. My scope as a physician is broad. General medicine cases form the core — fever, infections, chronic conditions like hypertension, diabetes, thyroid disorders — but there’s also the complex, overlapping presentations where you need to think wider. A patient might come for a persistent cough and leave with a referral for cardiac evaluation… because something in their story didn’t fit the usual respiratory pattern. I’m not the kind of doctor who rushes through just to keep the line moving. I’d rather spend a few extra minutes explaining what’s going on, what the tests are for, and why a certain treatment makes sense. Sometimes people say I ask too many follow-up questions, but honestly, missing details can cost much more later. Medicine changes fast — new studies, new drugs, new guidelines — and I make it a point to stay updated. It’s part professional duty, part personal habit. My goal is always to combine evidence-based medicine with practical, real-world care that actually works for the person sitting (or sometimes typing) in front of me. And yes, my spelling in quick notes might not always win awards, but the care itself stays sharp.

Hello, To keep your skin healthy,avoid using cosmetics. To reduce acne,you have to wash your face with mild face wash daily. Also understand that in your age due to hormonal changes there will be acne naturally… Take heathy diet rich in vit C and E,do daily exercise and meditation…

Apply Acnestar Gel over affected area

Managing moderate acne along with dark marks and mild scarring can be challenging, especially if traditional skincare routines haven’t yielded much improvement. Let’s break down a few targeted approaches you could consider. First, addressing the active acne is crucial. Over-the-counter options like benzoyl peroxide, salicylic acid, or adapalene may help reduce breakouts—though, since you’re experiencing persistent issues, seeing a dermatologist might be a step forward for possibly stronger treatments like topical retinoids or even oral medications such as antibiotics or isotretinoin. The specific choice will depend on your skin type and other health considerations. Regarding the dark marks, they are often post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. Using products containing ingredients like niacinamide, vitamin C, or azelaic acid can lighten these marks over time. Be sure to protect your skin from the sun with a broad-spectrum sunscreen of at least SPF 30 daily—this is essential as sunlight can darken these spots. For mild scarring, treatments such as chemical peels, microdermabrasion, or laser therapy can be effective, although they typically are conducted in a clinical setting. Your dermatologist might also suggest topical silicone gels or sheets. Remember, consistency is key to see any visible changes, and it might take several weeks or even months to see noticeable improvements. Given the worsening of your symptoms despite trying various treatments, a consultation with a dermatologist is highly recommended. They can tailor a plan that’s more personalized for your situation, potentially including prescription treatments. Avoid picking or squeezing pimples to prevent further scarring, and focus on a simple, non-irritating skincare routine in conjunction with professional guidance. That approach, along with patience, will be your best bet in managing the situation moving forward.
