I'm 28 and have always struggled with oily skin, and that means dealing with pimples and their marks constantly. A few months back, I tried retino a with eukroma cream in a chickpea-sized amount, and after 3 months, my skin was looking great. But I stopped using eukroma and now all the pimples and marks are back. Should I start using eukroma again or is there a different approach I should consider? Any thoughts on what I can do to get rid of these spots once and for all?

I went trekking a couple of months ago and ended up getting bitten by a leech. It was attached for just a few minutes and had barely started to suck blood. Now, the wound's healed but there's this tiny bump left that sometimes gets really itchy. Is there anything I can do to deal with this?

Its likely that the bump is a residual scar or a reaction to the leech bite. Applying a soothing cream like hydrocortisone or a natural remedy like aloe vera gel may help with the itching. If it persists or causes discomfort, a dermatologist can offer further advice.
