I'm really struggling with dandruff and I've even started getting small wounds on my scalp. I actually saw a dermatologist about a year ago, and they told me to use this lotion at night I can't remember the name and wash my hair with Kenz Sal shampoo. It helped for a bit but now the problem is back. What should I do about this issue?

I'm trying to figure out which acne gel would be better for me. I don't have pus-filled acne, just the common kind. Should I go for clindamycin phosphate gel or nicotinamide phosphate gel?

Both 'clindamycin phosphate gel' and 'nicotinamide phosphate gel' are commonly used for acne treatment. For common acne without pus, 'nicotinamide phosphate gel' would be a better choice. You can apply a thin layer of 'nicotinamide phosphate gel' on the affected area once daily. Remember to cleanse the skin before applying the gel for better absorption and effectiveness.
