Question

I'm dealing with pimples and my dermatologist prescribed Retino A. But I also have pimple marks and these little bumps. Is it okay to use Retino A on those too?

Question

I'm really worried about this painful bump I have. A friend of mine went to a doctor who tried to squeeze a similar boil-like thing but nothing came out and it was really painful. That doctor prescribed antibiotics and told them to use cold compresses, but I think hot compresses might be more effective. Honestly, I wasn't too impressed with the doctor's approach. Can you help me figure out what this painful, swollen bump might be?

Question

I'm really worried because I've been dealing with vitiligo for five years now. I've been using topgraf ointment, malgain lotion, and taking pigmento tablets. At first, the treatment worked great and 80% of my patches were cured, but in the past year, nothing seems to work anymore. The old patches are still there and now Im even getting new ones. What's going on and what should I do? It's frustrating.

Question

I'm really curious about using vitamin E and fish liver oil tablets for my hair care. I got the vitamin E 400mg and cod liver oil B.P 300mg tablets from a pharmacy, but I'm unsure about the right dosage. How many of these can I safely take each day? Can you help me figure this out?
