I'm really trying to figure out if Deriva BPO gel or Deriva CMS is better for my acne-prone skin. I've got a lot of marks on my face and I'm not sure which one would help more. Can you please guide me?

I've been dealing with tinea cruris and my doctor prescribed me to take gris ODT for a couple of weeks and to use XYZal 10 mg as needed, along with Onabet cream without steroids. I followed this for two weeks and the infection seems almost gone, but the doctor advised me to continue the gris ODT for another week and the cream for two more weeks. Occasionally, I still get a light itching sensation around my area. Should I keep taking gris ODT for even longer? If so, how many more weeks should I continue? Also, can you suggest a good soap to use for the genital area?

You can use a gentle and mild soap for the genital area, such as Dove Sensitive Skin Beauty Bar or Cetaphil Gentle Cleansing Bar. Make sure to avoid harsh soaps or those with strong fragrances to prevent irritation. Yes, you should continue taking Gris ODT as advised by your doctor. I recommend continuing Gris ODT for another week to ensure the infection is completely gone

I'm 31 and recently started getting pimples on my face that come and go. They pop up on my nose and cheeks mainly, and they're kind of white. If I press them, a liquid comes out, and they usually disappear after about three days. I've never really used soap on my face, and I don't engage in activities like watching porn or masturbating every day. I'm just wondering why this is happening at my age. Can you help me figure it out?

Possible Causes of Pimples 1. Hormonal fluctuations: Changes in hormone levels, even in adulthood, can lead to acne. 2. Stress: Stress can increase cortisol levels, contributing to acne. 3. Diet: Consuming dairy products, refined carbohydrates, or foods high in sugar can trigger acne. 4. Genetics: Family history can play a role in acne development. 5. Environmental factors: Exposure to pollution, humidity, or certain chemicals can contribute to acne. White Pimples with Liquid Discharge The pimples you described, with a white color and liquid discharge, might be: 1. Pustules: A type of acne lesion filled with pus. 2. Milia: Small, white bumps caused by keratin buildup. 3. Sebaceous filaments: Naturally occurring, small bumps on the nose and cheeks. Next Steps 1. Consult a dermatologist: For personalized guidance and treatment. 2. Maintain good skincare habits: Cleanse your face gently with a non-comedogenic cleanser, and moisturize regularly. 3. Avoid picking or squeezing pimples: To prevent further inflammation and scarring. 4. Consider lifestyle changes: Reduce stress, eat a balanced diet, and stay hydrated.
