how to use tea tree oil for acne
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
- Combine 1 to 2 drops of tea tree oil with 12 drops of a carrier oil. However, be careful using any additional oils on your face. Any type of oil product has the potential to worsen acne.
- Before applying diluted tea tree oil to your face, do a small patch test on the inside of your elbow. Signs of skin sensitivity or an allergic reaction include itchiness, redness, swelling, and burning.
- Before applying the oil, wash your face with a gentle cleanser for acne-prone skin, and pat it dry.
- Gently apply diluted tea tree oil by dabbing it on your blemishes with a cotton round or pad.
- Allow to dry. Follow up with your usual moisturizer.
- Repeat morning and night.

View allI've been dealing with lichen planus, which appeared on my foot a couple of years ago. Back then, Allegra 180 mg and Halox S ointment worked for me, but now it's flared up on my hands and face. I'm really worriedespecially since it's on my face. Is there any advanced treatment or maybe even surgery that could offer a permanent solution? Also, are there any lifestyle changes I should consider? It's starting to stress out not just me but my whole family. Could really use some advice here.
Lichen planus can be challenging to treat, but there are options available. For the recurrence on your hands and face, you can try using Tacrolimus ointment along with Allegra 180 mg tablets. Tacrolimus ointment can help reduce inflammation and itching on the affected areas. Additionally, you can continue using Halox s ointment for relief. There is no high-end treatment like surgery to permanently cure lichen planus, but lifestyle changes can help manage the condition. Avoiding triggers such as stress, certain medications, and allergens can help prevent flare-ups.

I'm noticing a couple of tiny red dots on the head of my penis that appeared this morning. I had sex with a condom last night. Could this be some kind of allergy? Would it be okay to use candid cream for it? I've attached a photo. What do you think?
