I've been using Deriva BPO gel for my moderate acne, but after a week, I started to notice some redness. Now, the redness has gone down, but there's still this dark area around my mouth. Could this be hyperpigmentation from the gel, or might it be caused by something else?

Question

I have a 3-month-old and she's developed these allergic rashes on her hand. I'm wondering if using fresh neem leaf paste is safe for her delicate skin. Could this be a good remedy?

I'm dealing with this really annoying pain right at my tailbone and on the skin around it, exactly where the upper part of the butt cheeks meet. It usually flares up when I'm lying on my back and puts pressure on that area. Honestly, it's been so painful that it's making sleep tough. I've had a bed sore just above that spot for years, but it sorta dried up. This new pain started about a week ago. I'm really confused about whether this is a skin thing or more of a bone issue. Who should I talk to? Do you have any idea what might be causing this?
