I'm dealing with this issue where I've got these white pus-filled bumps on my face, and they usually come in clusters. They're not just regular pimples but are more like pus-filled lesions, and some can be pretty painful. I did a bit of research, and it seems like it might be caused by staph bacteria. I had this same problem last year and was prescribed Minoz OD and Microdox, which cleared it up back then. Really need some advice now on how I can tackle this again. Any suggestions on what I should do?

I'm a bit worried because I brought minoxidil USP 10HARE10 in India, and now that I'm in the UAE, I noticed that when I opened the bottle, the color is this strange yellow. I'm not sure if it's safe to use like this. Could this color change mean it's bad, or is it still okay to apply it?
