Can I use Propysalic NF as a night cream? Are there any side effects I should be aware of if I decide to use it this way? I think it acts as a good moisturizer and would love to hear your thoughts.

I've been noticing these things on my face that aren't exactly pimples, but they've got this white pus under the skin, kind of scattered everywhere. And if I press on them, the pus just comes out. I'm really puzzled about what's going on with my skin and was wondering if there's anything I can apply or do to help improve its condition?

Could be a sign of a skin condition called milia. To improve your skin quality, you can try using a topical retinoid cream such as Retin-A (tretinoin) to help exfoliate the skin and prevent further buildup of dead skin cells. Additionally, using a gentle exfoliating scrub containing salicylic acid can help unclog pores and improve skin texture. Make sure to follow up with a non-comedogenic moisturizer to keep your skin hydrated. Remember to start with a small amount of the products to avoid irritation, and gradually increase as tolerated.

I'm noticing some small pimples on my penis and I'm a bit worried about what they could be. I'm wondering if they might be Fordyce spots, but I'm not entirely sure. Should I consult a doctor about this, and if so, which type of doctor should I see?

Fordyce spots are a common condition that can appear as small, pale, red, or white bumps on the skin. If you suspect you have Fordyce spots, you can consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and confirmation. In some cases, no treatment is necessary, but if you are experiencing any discomfort or want them removed for cosmetic reasons, your dermatologist may recommend topical treatments or procedures like laser therapy.
