Question

I'm currently undergoing acne treatment and have been using Cleargel AP and Gelbenxop face wash for about a week. I've noticed my skin is starting to flake. Is this normal? Should I be worried?

I'm reaching out because my skin doctor diagnosed me with ringworm and suggested I use Funginil soap and cream. It's been about a month now, but the ringworm hasn't gone away. Am I on the right track with this treatment?

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?
