Is honey good for pimples?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Honey has natural antibacterial properties that can soothe inflammed acne. But natural isn't always safe when it comes to skincare. Do a patch test before trying.

View allI've been dealing with this really painful lump between my buttocks, right near the tailbone area, and it's making sitting super difficult. I was looking it up and it sounds a lot like a Pilonidal cyst based on the symptoms. I'm really in need of some relief from this pain. What should I do?

I've been eating book and toilet paper since I was 12, and now I'm 21. Lately, I've been dealing with breast lumps, skin irritation, itchiness, and breakouts since June 2017. I also keep getting regular vaginal infections. Could this be related to my paper-eating habit, and what should I do about these symptoms?
