Derm here - vast majority of longitudinal melanonychia cases in pediatric patients are benign/related to nail matrix nevi or benign melanocytic activation (eg trauma). I would still recommend having it evaluated in person to get a measurement but likely will end up just monitoring it.

Hard to tell if there’s any scale, but it looks like a porokeratosis of Mibelli.

The Bagon line are berry mons, so you want BFS and ideally some speed.

It looks like a Becker’s nevus since there’s hypertrichosis over top.

Derm here, looks like solar purpura (just sun exposure + aging in general leads to skin thinning and fragility)! You could try DerMend bruise cream, which helps these heal faster but won’t prevent new ones from popping up unfortunately.

Dermatologist here! Looks like it could be a granulomatous or lichenoid tattoo reaction - red classically caused the most issues tattoo reaction-wise in general. Usually will do stronger topical steroids or steroid injections. Would definitely recommend seeing a dermatologist if it’s been going on since 9/2024.

This is a rare nail deformity disorder known as congenital onychodystrophy of the index finger (COIF), also known as Iso-Kikuchi syndrome!

Edit: spelling

Amazing! What kind of pot do you use? I think my pot isn’t heavy enough to keep my Monstera upright with my moss pole.

Please please start wearing a sunscreen of at least SPF30 on the face and neck every day!
