Question 1

I've got a bit of a dilemma here. When I was a kid, I came down with typhoid, and my doctor had me take roxithromycin. Not long after, I noticed a little white spot on my skin and ever since then, I've avoided that medication. Now, I'm down with fever, cough, and a cold, and another doctor has prescribed me roxid 150. I'm really worried about taking it because of my past experience. Do you think it's safe for me to take, or should I consider an alternative? Would love some guidance here.

Accepted Answer

Roxid 150 is also a form of Roxithromycin, so it may not be suitable for you if you had a reaction to it in the past. An alternative antibiotic that can be considered for your current symptoms of fever, cough, and cold is Azithromycin. You can take Azithromycin 500mg once daily for 3 days. However, it is important to consult with your doctor before starting any new medication to ensure it is safe and appropriate for you.

Question 2

Can I use Betnovate-C cream to help with pimples and scars on my oily skin? I'm a bit worried because my skin tends to get really greasy, and I'm not sure if this would help or just make things worse. What would you recommend?

Accepted Answer

Betnovate is a steroid cream and should not be used for pimples or the marks caused by them

Question 3

I'm dealing with dandruff and someone suggested I try KZ lotion. Can you tell me how to use it properly? Like, should I apply it a few hours before showering, and does my hair need to be dry or wet when applying it? Also, do I need to use any oil beforehand?

Accepted Answer

CreamGelLotion: Wash and dry the infected area of the skin. Take a small amount of creamgellotion on the finger and gently rub on the clean and dry affected area and surrounding skin. It is only for external use. Avoid contact of creamgellotion with the nose, mouth, or eyes. In case it comes in contact with these areas accidentally, rinse with water thoroughly. Wash your hands before and after using creamgellotion if hands are not the affected area to prevent the spread of infection.Shampoo: Wash your hair with the shampoo and leave it on for 3 to 5 minutes. Then, rinse thoroughly with water.

I'm a chubby female and I've been struggling with blackheads and ingrown hairs on my inner thighs. It's really frustrating and I'm worried about it. What's the best way to get rid of these? Any advice would be really appreciated.

To get rid of blackheads and ingrown hair on your inner thighs, exfoliate regularly with a gentle scrub, use salicylic acid or tea tree oil products, wear loose-fitting clothing, and consider waxing or sugaring instead of shaving.
