Question

I'm experiencing some allergic reactions on my face after using tretin. I was advised to start with applying it for 10 minutes, then move to 20 minutes, and eventually increase the duration gradually. But there was this one time I left it on for a longer period, and that's when I noticed these reactions. There are dry patches on the affected area now. What should I do?

Question

I'm trying to understand the difference between milia and molluscum. Can you explain this in detail? Also, do these conditions go away on their own, or do they need some kind of treatment? I'm really curious because I just noticed some small bumps on my skin and I'm not sure what they are or if I should be worried.

Question

I've been dealing with this annoying issue for a couple of years now. I had a motorcycle silencer burn on my right calf, and while it healed, I keep getting these weird allergic reactions at the same spot. Even when I don't mess with it, I see pus-filled pores popping up there occasionally. I've tried consulting several skin specialists, but nothing seems to work long-term. What could be the reason behind this persistent problem, and do you have any advice or treatment suggestions?

Question
