I'm really worried about this condition on my leg. There's something like "KARATMarathi" there, and the blood around it has just turned into a solid red clot under my skin. It looks really concerning and I'm unsure if what I'm doing is right. I've started taking DISPERZYME and CEFCHAMP 325, twice every day, as prescribed. Do you think I'm on the right track to treat this issue, or should I consider something else?

Karat (Marathi word) typically refers to a boil or abscess.

I've been using Panderm cream for a while, but after learning about its side effects, I stopped. My doctor then prescribed Deriva CMS gel and another cream to treat the rashes and small pimples I got from Panderm. The rashes have improved, but I'm worried about what's next because I can't stop using the gel without risking the rashes coming back. Plus, my skin has become really dry. Can you recommend what kind of cream I should use now?

use doctor prescribed cream only

I'm really struggling with my oily skin. My face is constantly breaking out, especially with pimples on my chin and blackheads on my nose. It gets worse right before or during my periods. I always seem to get at least one or two painful pimples that start reddish, then they turn yellowish with pus. They leave marks on my skin when they eventually go away. Its really frustrating and I dont know what to do. Can you give me any advice?
