Question

My skin's really oily and acne-prone, plus its super sensitive. I'm trying to figure out which Cetaphil cleanser would be best suited for me. Should I go with the Cetaphil OS Oily Skin Cleanser or should I opt for the Cetaphil Gentle Cleanser? I'm kind of worried about making things worse with the wrong choice. Any advice?

Question

I've been using ELOSONE HT Cream for over three months and saw a real improvement in my skin color. But then I began to get pimples, and they left black marks that started spreading, so I stopped using the cream. Now, my face seems to be darkening really quickly. I'm worried and wondering if I should start using the cream again or try something else. What do you think?

Question

I'm really worried about my hair loss. The crown of my head is almost bald now, but thankfully the rest of my hair seems okay. I'm wondering, is there really a medication out there that can reverse this permanently? And if medication can't cut it, what other steps should I consider taking?

Question

I'm dealing with chickenpox; it's been about two days and the blisters are getting pretty uncomfortable. A friend mentioned that his doctor recommended Fucidin cream when he had chickenpox. Do you think it would be okay for me to use Fucidin on these infected areas too, or should I stick to something else?
