I'm currently undergoing treatment for pimples and scars on my face, and I'm wondering if it's okay to mix in some home remedies at the same time. Could home remedies cause any side effects while I'm on this treatment?

I've been struggling with these large red acnes or allergic bumps on my forehead lately. I tried using Castor NF with ofloxacin and terbinafine clobetasol, but they haven't helped at all. The bumps are really painful to touch, and they're not just staying on my foreheadthey're spreading to other parts of my face. I'm starting to feel really frustrated as they seem to be growing more. When I use Castor NF, they shrink a little bit, but not enough to make a difference. What could be going on, and how can I get them to stop spreading?

I've been using Betnovate N since I was 15 for these dry patches on my skin. I stuck with it for about a year and a half, but after I stopped, my skin's texture really changed. It got super itchy and dry, and now I have blackheads. Luckily, no pimples, but my skin does feel a bit rough. What can I do to fix or improve this?

Sounds like side effects from prolonged use of Betnovate-N, which contains betamethasone and neomycin. To help improve the texture of your skin and address the dryness, itchiness, and roughness, you can try using a moisturizer containing urea and lactic acid to hydrate and exfoliate the skin. Additionally, you can use a gentle cleanser to help with the blackheads. Avoid using harsh scrubs or products that may further irritate your skin. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and management.
