I accidentally drank hot water that was around 60 or 70 degrees. My lips and tongue got burned, and I still feel a burning sensation, but the color hasnt changed and there are no burn marks. My lips have started to recover a bit, but my tongue, especially the underside, still has severe issues. It's painful to eat. Is there any ointment or medication you recommend for my tongue?

View allI've been dealing with a lot of dandruff lately, and it's started to cause pimples on my face. What can I do about this dandruff problem? Any advice would be appreciated.
Dandruff can be treated with anti-dandruff shampoos containing ketoconazole. You can try using Nizoral shampoo twice a week for 4 weeks to help reduce dandruff. Additionally, for the pimples on your face, you can use a topical acne treatment such as benzoyl peroxide gel (2.5%) once daily on the affected areas. Remember to consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and management if the symptoms persist.

I've been using erythego gel for my Rosacea for about a year and a half without issues since it was prescribed by my doctor. But lately, I've developed contact dermatitis, and now every time I apply the gel, it seems to make things worse. Could the gel be causing my contact dermatitis?
Erythego gel contains erythromycin, which is an antibiotic commonly used to treat acne and rosacea. However, some individuals may develop an allergic reaction to erythromycin, leading to contact dermatitis. I recommend stopping the use of erythego gel and consulting with your doctor for an alternative treatment option for your rosacea.

I'm taking terbest 250mg every day for a fungal infection that's mainly on the skin of my scrotum, inside the foreskin, and on the head of my private part. There are also some tiny rashes. I've noticed that the terbest is starting to work, but I'm wondering how many days I should keep taking it?
