I'm dealing with some pigmentation and scars on my cheeks and around my nose and I've heard glycolic acid creams might help. Could you recommend a cream that could be effective for treating these issues? I'm a bit worried and would love some guidance on what might work best.

Question

I got my nose pierced in February, and now it's March, but my piercing isn't healing well. There's red skin around it, and sometimes a little pus comes out. There's no pain, but there's a small bump, and it just won't heal. I've tried some antibiotics, but nothing's changed. My wedding is coming up soon, and I'm really worried about this. Do you have any advice or solutions for how I can get it to heal faster?

I got bitten by an ant on my penis and it's starting to swell up. It happened about two hours ago. I'm 16 and pretty freaked out. Can you tell me what's going on? Would really appreciate your help with this.

Question

I've been dealing with chronic urticaria for a while, and it's really been tough. I heard about aprezo tablets and wanted to see if they might be helpful for me. Also, I've read something about omalizumab injections. Can you explain how these work and if combining them with techzinespectra could be a good idea for managing my symptoms? Thanks!
