I'm a bit concerned because I've been using Betnovate cream on my face for skin lightening over the past 5 years, like every other day or sometimes thrice a week. Is this safe to keep using in the long run? Are there any side effects I should be aware of?

I'm really worried about some redness and cuts on my penis. I've been taking medicine for the past couple of days, but I'm still not getting any relief. It feels super distressing, like it's going to be fatal or something. I'm using Onabet B cream, but I'm desperate for help to get rid of the cuts and redness. What should I do?

That looks like fungal infection which needs oral and topical antifungal medication and personal hygiene is the main stay, visit Dermatologist for appropriate management.

I'm concerned about using aziderm cream for the black spots on my face. After applying it, I felt a burning sensation after just a few minutes. Is this a normal reaction, or could there be a problem with the cream? I'm really looking to find a safe way to get rid of these spots. What do you suggest?

The burning sensation you are experiencing after applying aziderm cream is a common side effect, especially if you have sensitive skin. It may be due to the active ingredient in the cream, which is azelaic acid. If the burning sensation is severe or persistent, you should discontinue the use of the cream and consult your doctor. To remove black spots on your face, you can consider using a different cream containing ingredients like hydroquinone, kojic acid, or retinoids. Some options include Melalite cream, Kojivit gel, or Retin-A cream. These creams can help lighten the dark spots and improve the overall appearance of your skin.
