I'm dealing with HSV 1 and found out I'm IgG positive. Since I've had this infection before and it's now latent, could I still pass it on to someone else through oral contact even when I don't have active symptoms?

Question

I'm really worried because my daughter accidentally spilled hot tea on her chest, and now she has about three spots, each around an inch, that got burned. After treatment, her chest is okay now, but the skin color where it burned is different from her normal skin. What can I do to help the color of the burned skin blend back in with her regular skin tone?

Question

I think I might have a staph infection. It's looking kind of purple and there's this big red spot around it, and it's pretty painful. Should I have it checked out?

Question

I'm using SkinLite on my face every night, and I'm wondering if it's okay to also apply vitamin E capsules afterward. Also, during the day, can I use lemon juice on my face, or would that react badly with the SkinLite? I'm a bit worried about how these might interact with each other.
