I'm dealing with exfoliative cheilitis for 10 years now, and it's really tough. My lips peel every day, both top and bottom, in this really weird cycle. It leaves them super red and inflamed. I've tried steroid creams and other medications, but honestly, nothing seems to help. Is there something I'm missing or some treatment that could actually work?

You can apply a thin layer of Tacrolimus ointment 0.1% to your lips twice daily. Additionally, taking Vitamin B supplements can also help improve the health of your lips. Make sure to consult with your healthcare provider before starting any new medication regimen.

I've been using Safi for the past two months to help with blood purification and acne, and so far, I haven't noticed any side effects. But I'm getting mixed messages; some people say it's safe, while others warn of possible side effects. I'm feeling a bit confused and wonder if it's okay to continue using it. Should I keep using Safi for its benefits, or are there risks I should be worried about? I really need some professional guidance on this.
Safi blood purifier is a herbal remedy that is commonly used for blood purification and acne. While some people may not experience any side effects from using Safi, it is important to note that herbal remedies can still have potential side effects and interactions with other medications. If you have been using Safi for 2 months without any noticeable side effects, it may be safe for you to continue using it. However, it is always a good idea to consult with a healthcare professional before starting or continuing any new medication or supplement. If you are looking for alternative options, you can consider using topical acne treatments containing benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid for acne, and maintaining a healthy diet and lifestyle for blood purification.

I've been dealing with pimples and blackheads on my face for the past couple of months and started using Deriva-Bro gel for three days now. But I'm not sure how long I should be applying this gel. Can you guide me on the right usage or any other tips?
-Hi Gulam Sarwar, you can use Deriva-BPO gel once daily, usually at night, for 4-6 weeks to see improvements. If you experience irritation, reduce usage to every other day and consult your doctor for further guidance.
