Question

I've been using Tretinoin cream for about a month now to tackle my hyperpigmentation, but instead of seeing improvements, my face and neck are getting darker. I'm really concerned and wondering if this increased darkness is normal and will eventually go away on its own. Could you share some insights on what might be happening?

I've been dealing with ringworm for over two months now, and I'm really worried. I've got some Dazit tablets and Itzzh Livafin cream, and I've also read about using Mupin. Is it safe to use these all together? Do you think this combo could help me get rid of it finally? I'm really concerned and would love some guidance on this.

Question

I've been dealing with a lot of ingrown hairs on my legs from shaving, and it's really frustrating. I've tried waxing multiple times, but those pesky ingrown hairs just won't disappear. It's starting to feel hopeless. Is there any solution to finally get rid of them once and for all?

Question

I've been dealing with recurring ringworm issues and I'm really getting frustrated. I've gone through three cycles of using candiforce 100mg and antifungal cream according to the 15-day treatment but it just keeps coming back a few days after I finish. Every time it seems to be completely gone, it just reappears out of the blue. What should I do for a permanent solution? I'm really tired of this repeating cycle.
