I'm currently using Eflora Cream to tackle unwanted hair growth on my face, but I've noticed I have pimples too. Is it still okay to keep applying the cream? Should I be concerned about any side effects? I'm a 26-year-old woman and would appreciate some guidance.

View allI had jock itch and now it's left a scar on my skin. I'm really concerned about how to get rid of this scar. Can you help me with some advice or treatment options?
To remove the scars left from jock itch, you can use a cream containing hydroquinone, which helps lighten dark spots on the skin. You can apply a cream like Mederma or Bio-Oil twice a day on the affected area. Additionally, using a silicone gel sheet like ScarAway can also help reduce the appearance of scars. Make sure to follow the instructions on the product packaging for best results.

I've been dealing with this persistent eczema on my upper lip that only seems to go away when I take Allegra for five days. But as soon as I stop, it comes right back. Is there anything else I can try that might offer a more permanent solution? I'm really worried it won't improve long-term, and I'm curious why the Allegra works but only temporarily.
You can try using a topical corticosteroid cream like hydrocortisone 1% on the affected area to reduce inflammation and itching. Make sure to follow the recommended dosage for Allegra and consult with your doctor if you have any concerns.

I've been having some issues with acne, especially whiteheads, and I think it might be a side effect from the B12 injections I had. The injections were Nervijen Plus and had ingredients like Folic Acid, Methylcobalamin, and Niacinamide. I got two shots, one on December 25th, 2017, and the other on January 1st, 2018. I'm wondering how long this acne could last? Every morning there's a new whitehead popping up. It's not as bad as it was, but it's still pretty annoying. Is there anything I can do or take to make this stop?
The acne caused by the B12 injection should subside on its own within 2-3 months, and to manage it, maintain good skincare habits, use acne treatments, avoid picking or popping whiteheads, and consider consulting a dermatologist for personalized advice.
