I'm noticing these small white and yellowish spots on the corners of my lips, and they've been there for about a month. They don't hurt or itch, but they look odd when I see them in the mirror. Any idea what this could be?

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.

Ive been thinking about trying glutathione capsules, but I have a few grey hairs already and Im a bit worried. Since glutathione is known to increase melanin production for fairer skin, could it also increase melanin in my hair and turn all of it grey? Should I go ahead with taking glutathione, or is there a risk that all my hair could turn grey?
