Can the side effects of using Penderm Plus be permanently resolved? I'm really worried because I've got red patches and dryness on my face from it. How long might it take for these to go away completely? Any suggestions would be super helpful.

I tried using Salactin paint on my ankle to get rid of some hard skin, but after just a day, the skin turned black and red. It looks like it might be burnt. What should I do to treat this and help it heal?
Salactin paint contains salicylic acid, which can help soften and remove hard skin. However, it can also cause irritation, especially if used incorrectly or on sensitive skin. The black and red discoloration you've described suggests a chemical burn or severe irritation. To promote healing and reduce discomfort, follow these steps: Immediate Care 1. Stop using Salactin paint: Discontinue use immediately to prevent further irritation. 2. Wash the area: Gently wash the affected area with mild soap and lukewarm water to remove any remaining salicylic acid. 3. Apply a topical cream: Use a topical cream or gel containing aloe vera, hydrocortisone (1%), or calamine to help soothe and calm the skin.

I'm wondering if it's safe to use Kz soap on my hair for dandruff. I know it has ketoconazole, so I'm curious if it's effective and okay to use for that purpose. What do you think?
