I'm a bit confused about how to use the acnewar gel that my doctor prescribed. Should I wash my face with water after applying the gel and then use the face wash my doctor recommended? Or do I just use the face wash directly after putting on the acnewar gel? I'm not really sure what the correct order is.

When using Acnewar gel and a prescribed face wash, follow this order:
- Apply Acnewar gel: Directly apply a thin layer of Acnewar gel to the affected areas.
- Wait for 15-30 minutes: Allow the gel to absorb and work on the acne.
- Wash your face with the prescribed face wash: Use lukewarm water and a small amount of face wash to cleanse your face.
- Rinse thoroughly: Rinse your face with lukewarm water to remove all residue.
Do not mix Acnewar gel with the face wash. Apply the gel first, wait, and then wash your face with the prescribed face wash.

I'm really worried about my ongoing urticaria after being diagnosed with dengue last year. I'm currently seeing a dermatologist and taking Allegra, Famocid, and Doxepin, but it's impacting me mentally too. I'm planning on starting IVF soon, and I'm concerned if this condition might interfere with fertility treatments. Could you help me understand if urticaria could be a problem for IVF?
Your urticaria should not hinder your IVF treatments directly, and your current medications (Allegra, Famocid, and Doxepin) are not typically known to interfere with fertility. However, its always best to consult your fertility specialist about your full medication list. The psychological aspect of dealing with chronic urticaria is valid, and managing stress will be important for both your overall well-being and fertility treatment success.

I'm dealing with angiekartomas on the back skin of my penis. I've read about laser treatment and was wondering if I could drop by your clinic in SR Nagar for a consultation. Is that possible?
For angiokeratomas on the skin of the penis, laser treatment can be effective. You can use a topical numbing cream before the procedure. One common medication used for this condition is Picato gel, applied once daily for 2-3 days. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for proper evaluation and treatment.
