View allIs it common for ringworm to have a clear liquid coming out of it? What does it mean if it does? Should I be worried about this, or is it something that usually happens?
Ringworm typically presents as a red, scaly rash that may be itchy. Oozing clear liquid from a ringworm lesion can indicate a secondary bacterial infection. This is a cause for concern as it may require additional treatment to clear the infection. I recommend using an antifungal cream like Lotrimin Ultra twice a day on the affected area, along with an antibiotic cream like Neosporin to prevent bacterial infection. If the oozing persists or worsens, please consult a healthcare provider for further evaluation and treatment.

I'm using Minokem N2 for my beard growth since June, but recently, in the last couple of weeks, I've noticed a lot of pimples popping up on my right cheek. I'm a bit worried and wondering if I should stop using Minokem. Could you also give me some advice on how to get rid of these pimples?
I recommend stopping the use of Minokem N2% and consulting with a dermatologist for further evaluation. To help cure the pimples, you can use a topical acne treatment like Benzoyl Peroxide gel (2.5%) twice daily on the affected area after washing your face with a gentle cleanser. Additionally, you can use a non-comedogenic moisturizer to keep your skin hydrated. If the pimples persist or worsen, please seek medical advice from a dermatologist.
