Question

I've been using Persol Forte cream for my acne, and I've noticed that while my acne has reduced, the areas where it was have now become darker. Should I keep using the cream, or is it better to stop? Any recommendations for a cream that can help with the dark spots?

I'm really concerned about my pinky finger. A few days ago, it got really itchy, and I noticed a bubble-like thing on it. I popped it with a needle yesterday, and now it's gotten worse. It's slightly itchy, it hurts, and my finger seems swollen today. Can you help me figure out what's going on?
