Hey, I'm 31 and in pretty good health overall, but I've got these pimples and old acne marks on my nose that I'm trying to deal with. I've been taking the Evion 400mg, those green colored capsules, for the past three weeks. Is it okay to keep taking them? I'm just concerned if they could cause any harm to my health. Would love some advice on this!

  1. Safety and Use:

    • Taking Evion 400mg (tocopheryl acetate) is generally safe for most adults when used appropriately.
    • Vitamin E is not the most effective treatment for pimples or acne marks.
  2. Effectiveness:

    • Limited scientific evidence supports vitamin E's effectiveness for treating acne or scars.
  3. Recommendations:

    • Consult a dermatologist for targeted treatments like topical retinoids or chemical peels.
    • Maintain a gentle skincare routine and protect your skin from sun exposure.
  4. Caution:

    • If you experience symptoms like bleeding or digestive issues, stop the supplement and seek medical advice.

In summary, while short-term use of Evion 400mg is unlikely to harm you, consulting a dermatologist will provide more effective treatment options for your skin concerns.

I'm trying to deal with some acne scars, and my dermatologist recommended nirvalyte gel. But unfortunately, I can't find it anywhere. Do you have any suggestions for other treatments? The pigmentation is just a bit, but the scars are more of the pitting type. I'm curious if there's something else that might help!

You can consider using a topical retinoid cream such as Retin-A (tretinoin) gel. Apply a pea-sized amount to the affected areas at night. Additionally, you can also try using a vitamin C serum to help with pigmentation. Make sure to use a sunscreen during the day to protect your skin. If these treatments do not show significant improvement, you may consider procedures like microdermabrasion or laser therapy after consulting with a dermatologist.

I'm dealing with a stubborn fungal infection on my butt that's been bothering me for a few months now. I did see a doctor, and they gave me some cream and powder to use, which seemed to clear things up at first. But now, instead of that round, rash-like infection, I've developed bubble or pimple-like fungal bumps. Any idea what might be happening or how I should handle this? I'm really hoping to find a way to get rid of it for good.

It sounds like you may be experiencing a different type of fungal infection after treating the initial round. For the bubble or pimple-like fungal infection, you can try using Clotrimazole cream twice a day on the affected area. Additionally, you can take Fluconazole 150mg tablet once a week for 4 weeks to treat the infection from within. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry to prevent further spread of the infection.
