I'm really worried about my brother. Since yesterday, he's been dealing with really itchy skin and it's been causing some rashes on his back, hands, and thighs. What could be causing this, and what can we do about it?

Is there a cream or gel that's good for open pores? I've got quite a few open pores and I'm wondering what I can use to help with them.

There are several over-the-counter creams and gels that can help minimize the appearance of open pores. One option is the "Neutrogena Pore Refining Moisturizer," which contains retinol and beta hydroxy acid to help reduce the size of pores. Another option is the "La Roche-Posay Effaclar Pore-Refining Anti-Aging Serum," which contains glycolic acid and micro-exfoliating lipo-hydroxy acid to tighten pores. You can apply these products once or twice daily, following the instructions on the packaging for best results.
