Question

I've been taking some meds for my acne vulgaris, and now I've got this rash on my arms and other parts of my body. I was supposed to be on the meds for 5 days, and I've already done 4. What should I do now?

I've been dealing with these red rings that itch for about six months now. Some medications help, but only for a short time, and then the rings come back. What might be causing this, and is there a better way to treat or manage it? I'm a bit worried since it's been going on for quite a while.

Question

I'm wondering if using Mintop Forte is causing some kind of reaction on my scalp. I've been applying it for the past two to three days, and now Im noticing pimple-like bumps popping up. I've attached a photo to show what I mean. Could these be related to the product, and should I be worried or do something about it?

Question

I'm wondering if smoking 12 cigarettes a day might interfere with the effectiveness of minoxidil or other hair loss treatments. Could this habit have a negative impact on hair regrowth?
