Question

I'm a little confused about the instructions my dermatologist gave me. They told me to apply 1ml of minoxidil once a day at night, but I thought the usual dosage was 2 ml, like once in the morning and once at night. I'm wondering if this is right or if maybe there was a mistake. Could you help me understand what's going on?

Question

I recently got bitten by an insect they call the Nairobi fly, and now there's this blister on my skin that's turned into scabby scales. Does the whole blistering thing and scabbiness mean it's healing, or should I be worried about it? Also, after seeing my doctor, they mentioned something about an injection. Do you think this will help with the healing process, or is there something else I should be doing?

Question

I'm a 21-year-old girl from North India, and I've been noticing that my skin is wheatish overall, but my inner thighs and buttocks are quite a bit darker than the rest of my body. Is this something that's normal for most Indians? If not, can you suggest any ways to lighten those areas?

Question

Can I just use Ezanic 20 gel on my acne marks? I'm really hoping to get this cleared up, and I'd love some advice on whether that's the right approach. Looking forward to hearing from you soon!
