Question

I've been using Melacare cream for about 3 years now, and I'm starting to notice my skin is becoming really red and I feel this burning sensation. I'm really worried and seriously considering stopping the use of this cream. Can you suggest any measures I should take?

Question

I've been staying at a friend's place for a few days and now I'm getting incredibly itchy bites, but I can't actually see anything on my skin. I'm pretty sure I might have mites and it's driving me nuts. I've tried washing with a sulfur-based body wash for a couple of days, but it doesn't seem to help. Is there anything else I could do to get rid of these mites and stop the itching?
