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?

I'm using Erytop lotion twice a day, once in the morning and then again before I go to bed. Is it okay to apply sunscreen over Erytop in the morning? And at night, can I put on a moisturizer after using the Erytop lotion? Just want to make sure I'm doing it right.

I've been getting these cyst-like things on my waist, mostly on one side. They fill up with pus and blood and stick around for about 35 days before they finally go away. It sometimes happens under my thighs too, but not as often. It's kind of worrying me. What could be causing this, and what should I do about it?

That could be bacterial infection,and needs physical examination,visit Dermatologist for appropriate management
