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.

I'm dealing with this red, ring-like rash and it's really itchy in my groin area. I just realized I used the same pad from my last period. Could this be the cause of the rash and itching? I'm kinda worried and not sure what to do. What do you think?

You may be experiencing contact dermatitis or a yeast infection due to using the same pad, so try switching to a new pad, practice good hygiene, and apply a topical cream, but if the rash persists, consult a healthcare professional for proper diagnosis and treatment.

I've been getting lots of tiny pimples around my nose and chin area. I think my skin has become addicted to Skinlite cream. A general physician recommended Dermadew Glow and Tab Celine 500 mg, but I'm not sure if I should be using these products since hes not a dermatologist. What do you think? Should I try them out, or should I be consulting a specialist first?

Yes you can use it no problem,if its becoming worse,visit dermatologistm for appropriate management
