I'm a bit worried about something. I had a 60 TCA cross done recently, and by the fifth day, I noticed that my skin started turning yellowish-white. I'm really suspecting it might be infected. I've been using terramycin skin ointment, but now I'm seeing some white stuff and pus coming out. Is this kind of reaction normal with this ointment?

I've been using Tretinoin cream for about a month now to tackle my hyperpigmentation, but instead of seeing improvements, my face and neck are getting darker. I'm really concerned and wondering if this increased darkness is normal and will eventually go away on its own. Could you share some insights on what might be happening?

Yes,Continue same treatment.

I've been dealing with these red rings that itch for about six months now. Some medications help, but only for a short time, and then the rings come back. What might be causing this, and is there a better way to treat or manage it? I'm a bit worried since it's been going on for quite a while.
