Question

I'm living in Bangalore and I'm noticing that after I take a bath, my facial skin feels really dry and it even starts cracking, it's happening with my legs too. I tried using Pond's cold cream, but it just makes my skin oily and doesn't really help. I've been considering trying extra virgin olive oil. Do you have any suggestions or can you recommend something else that might work?

I've had a wound on my leg for a couple of weeks now, and while it's healing, I've noticed this itchy circular rash forming around it. The itchiness is getting pretty annoying, and it looks like it's spreading slowly. Should I be worried about this rash, and what can I do to help it go away?

Question

I'm really worried about some hypopigmented spots on my skin. I came across a picture online that looks a lot like what's happening with me. Do you think using Whitcare skin cream could help with this? Also, someone mentioned aloe vera might be useful for hypopigmented skin. Is that true? Would love to get your insight on this.

Question

I'm wondering if it's okay to skip my vitamin C enerc 1000 doses every now and then. Will it affect my treatment if I miss some doses here and there? What would you recommend I do in this situation?
