I'm really worried about my sister. She's got these small warts on her neck and face, and they seem to be spreading to her chest and armpits. Sometimes they itch, but not always. She's tried using pure turmeric mixed with neem and potato juice, but nothing's really worked. Now she's been using Dettol and says that the burning feeling she had at first isn't there anymore. Do you think it's okay for her to keep using Dettol to get rid of the warts? If you have any other home remedy ideas, that would be great because she's not into the idea of laser treatment and it's really causing her some pain. Any advice?

I'm dealing with some pretty frustrating scalp itching and I'm using a mix of three different medicated shampoos as my doctor recommended. They also prescribed Onabet SD and Onabet lotion. But I'm wonderingis it okay if I start using MINTOP5 on the days when I'm not applying the Onabet lotions? Would that be alright to add into my routine without causing any issues?

Yes, you can use MINTOP 5% on the days when you are not using Onabet lotions. Make sure to apply MINTOP 5% solution to the scalp once a day, preferably in the evening. Remember to wash your hands thoroughly after applying the solution and avoid getting it in your eyes.

I've had clear skin for a long time, but recently, I had a bad allergic reaction while I was in another state, and now I'm getting these small white pus-filled bumps on my face. They appear and disappear, but leave these flesh-colored bumps that have been sticking around. It's been almost a year like this, and I've tried doxycycline and various acne medications with no success. I even used Proactiv years ago, and it worked then, but now it just irritates my skin. What do you think could be causing this and is there anything else I can try to get rid of these bumps?

that coul be pemphigous which is a microbial infection,visit your dermatologist for appropriate treatment.

Over winter, I've noticed my skin tends to get a darker shade, even though I've usually got a fair skin tone. What do you think might be causing this? Plus, my skin gets pretty dry around this time. Could you recommend a moisturizer that isn't sticky but still brightens up my skin? Would love some advice on how to manage both these issues!
