I'm really struggling with a lot of pimples on my face recently and it's quite frustrating. I've been using acnelak facewash and acnesol cream, but they don't seem to be making any difference. My skin is pretty oily, and I'm not sure what else to try. Could you recommend any medicine or cream that might work for me?

It seems like your current treatment is not effective for your oily skin. I recommend trying a combination of benzoyl peroxide and adapalene gel. You can use Benzac AC gel (2.5%) in the morning and Differin gel (0.1%) at night. Make sure to apply a thin layer on the affected areas after washing your face. Remember to use a gentle cleanser suitable for oily skin and apply a non-comedogenic moisturizer to prevent dryness.

View allI've noticed some white patches popping up around my hairline and over my left eyebrow, and they seem to be multiplying. There's no pain, irritation, or itching, but I've been dealing with a dry scalp. I'm getting a bit worried about it. Could it be something serious? What should I do about it?
The white patches near your hairline and left eyebrow, accompanied by a dry scalp, could be indicative of pityriasis versicolor, a fungal infection, or possibly vitiligo, a condition causing skin pigmentation loss; consult a dermatologist for a proper diagnosis and treatment,

I'm curious if there's a way to cure psoriasis through homeopathy. Also, is it okay to take allopathic medicine at the same time while getting treated for psoriasis with homeopathy?
It is generally not recommended to mix different types of treatments without consulting healthcare professionals. It is important to inform both your allopathic doctor and homeopath about all the medications you are taking to avoid any potential interactions. It is best to seek guidance from both practitioners to ensure safe and effective treatment.

I've been having this issue where my lips turn white when they get wet. It's been happening for about four months now. Every week, my lips peel off completely, and two days after the peeling, a white line forms between them. I've already seen a physician who gave me zevitlycored and meganeuron od plus tablets, but they didn't help. Then, I went to a dermatologist who recommended cinort gel and tacros cream. Those also didn't work, only giving me temporary relief. I even had a blood test done, and everything came back normal. I'm worried and unsure what to do next. Can you help?
this looks like cheilitis which is due to vitamin deficiency , consume balanced diet and more green leafy vegetables,and also stay hydrated, never scratch or try to peel it off.
