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?

View allI'm dealing with seborrheic dermatitis for a few months now and got some worries. Is this something that can even be fully cured? Also, how long does treatment usually take? Should I be thinking about getting an HIV test because of this? And finally, when I go for a haircut, is there a high risk of picking up infections at the barbershop because of my condition?
1. Seborrheic dermatitis is a chronic condition, but it can be managed and symptoms can be reduced with treatment and its totally curable also 2. Treatment duration varies, but significant improvement can be seen within 2-6 weeks with topical treatments, and 3-6 months with oral medications. 3. While seborrheic dermatitis can be more common in people with HIV, a diagnosis of seborrheic dermatitis does not necessarily warrant an HIV test, unless you have other risk factors or symptoms. 4. Seborrheic dermatitis is not contagious, and you cannot spread it to others or get infected through contact with contaminated skin or barber equipment.
