I've been dealing with this itching problem for almost 25 days now, mostly in the lower part of my body. It started on my thighs and around the genital area. I used Fourderm cream, and the itching in the genital area got better, but my thighs are still really itchy. Now, it's even affecting the area below my knees, with the intensity changing day by day. Some days it seems to get better, and then it comes back. I've also noticed small red spots on my thighs but not below the knees. I'm really worried about what could be causing this and what I should do next. Can you help?

I've been dealing with some acne on my cheeks and have a few blemish scars too. I'm wondering if I can use Klinface A gel again? It was prescribed to me by my dermatologist before and worked really well in about a month. Is it safe for me to start using it again on my own?

Yes you can use it no problem
