I had an accident a few days ago and ended up with three stitches on the back of my head. I'm wondering if it's okay to use Soframycin on them. What do you think? Should I be careful about anything while applying it?

I've been dealing with a really red and irritated rash along my mustache line, and it's super dry and itchy. Recently, I also noticed a lump on the right side of my jaw, and I can't figure out why it's there. Plus, my acne seems to be getting worse. I've been using moisturizer and washing my face with 10% benzoyl peroxide, but I've avoided using it in the rashy area for months. I first noticed the dryness and flakiness around the start of the year. Any idea what's going on or what I should do?

I've had these bald patches over my left and right ear for about four years now, and they're really bothering me. They're oval and completely bald, and nothing I've tried so far has made them go away. I haven't done anything about it for the past two years, but it seems like the bald patches are slowly getting bigger. Do you have any advice on what might be causing this or how I can treat it?
