View allI've got these burns from hot oil splashing on me in the kitchen a couple of days ago. The blisters have started to open up, and I'm not sure what to do about them. A friend gave me some clobetasol propionate cream 0.05%. Will that actually help with my burns? Most of them are small on my right arm and chest, but there are a few as big as 12 inches. Im kind of unsure about using this cream on the burns. Could you advise?
Yes you can use it,rather than that u can also use megaheal or silkal gel for good results

I'm feeling really confused about this. One doctor suggested taking microdox lbx tablets for my pimples, which seem to help, but I've heard from other doctors that they might not be safe. What should I do?
It is a very good medicine to treat acne.Each and every medicine has its side effects so don't panic.This medicine is safe and doesn't have any debilitating side effects.
