I'm a 40-year-old woman experiencing skin pigmentation on my face, and it's starting to worry me. I don't have any other health issues, but this sudden change in my skin's appearance is concerning. What could be causing this pigmentation, and should I be doing something specific to address it?

I've been dealing with a stubborn boil on my butt and it got really inflamed and red, so my doctor put me on antibiotics for five days. The swelling has gone down since then, but the boil isn't completely healed yet. It still oozes a bit of pus and blood when I squeeze it, though it's almost flat now. I'm just a bit worried because it's taking longer to heal than I expected. Do you think this is normal? Should I be doing anything else to help it heal completely?

That will heal don't try to squeeze it, consume balanced diet

I've been on Sotret 20 mg for a month now, and I've just been diagnosed with thyroid issues. Do you think it's okay if I take Sotret at night and Thyronorm in the morning? I'm a bit worried about how these medications might interact.

There is no interaction between those two drugs,you continue them as your doctor advised.
