Can I use a cream with salicylic acid in the morning and a cleanser with salicylic acid at night? Would it be too much for my skin? I'm really curious if combining them might irritate my skin or if it's safe to do both. What do you think?

it would cause mild burns or rashes so try to include it slowly to your skincare starting with facewash

Safety Considerations:
- Using both a cream and a cleanser with 6% salicylic acid can irritate your skin, especially if it's sensitive or dry.
-
Potential Skin Reactions:
- Look out for signs like dryness, redness, or peeling.
-
Recommendations: a. Start Slowly: Introduce one product at a time to monitor your skin's response. b. Moisturize: Use a gentle, non-comedogenic moisturizer to minimize irritation. c. Sun Protection: Apply sunscreen daily as salicylic acid increases sun sensitivity.
-
Consultation:
- If irritation persists, consider consulting a dermatologist for personalized advice.

View allMy daughter's been dealing with cough, cold, and fever since yesterday morning, and her fever spikes up to 101 degrees. When we give her Dolo or Ibugesic syrup, the fever drops but comes back after about 6 hours. She also experiences chills before the fever returns. We've been giving her Timnic for the cold and Tycklix for the cough. Can you tell me how long it might take for her to stabilize? Should we be thinking about antibiotics now? Just last week, she had stomach issues and fever, and was on Rantac and Azee syrup for that. What should we do?
Considering the symptoms of persistent fever with chills, it is advisable to consult a doctor for a proper evaluation. Antibiotics may be considered if there are signs of a bacterial infection, such as prolonged fever or worsening symptoms. It is important to complete the course of antibiotics as prescribed by the doctor. In the meantime, continue with the current medications for cold and cough as directed. If the fever persists or worsens, seek medical attention promptly.

I'm really worried about my 4-year-old daughter's ear pain. We already saw a doctor, and they gave us some drops to put in her ear, mentioning there was an infection or fungus. I followed the instructions, but she's still complaining of pain. Could you let me know why this might be happening? Is there anything else I should try or be looking out for?
