I'm really worried about whether the Nevlon lotion I'm using might be clogging my pores. I have acne-prone skin, and the last thing I want is to make it worse. Could you suggest some good non-comedogenic moisturizers that would be safe for my skin type?

Yes, Nevlon lotion may clog pores due to its comedogenic ingredients; for acne-prone skin, consider non-comedogenic moisturizers like Cetaphil Moisturizing Cream, Neutrogena Hydro Boost Water Gel, or La Roche-Posay Toleriane Ultra Fluid, which are labeled "non-comedogenic" or "oil-free" to minimize pore clogging and acne risk.

View allI'm concerned because I've been using Beta GC ointment for around two years for itching and pimples on my face, based on my doctor's advice. I've been applying it once every 8 to 10 days, but if I stop, I get these small pimple-like bumps and the itching starts up again. Now I'm really worried because I can't find the tube in the market anymore. What should I do?

I've noticed these dark spots on my lower back near my spinal cord that started appearing over a month ago. They don't hurt or itch, but they seem to be spreading, and it's starting to make me a bit concerned. Should I be worried or get this checked out? Any idea what might be causing this?
Could be a condition called Tinea Versicolor. This is a fungal infection of the skin that can cause discolored patches. I recommend using an antifungal medication such as Clotrimazole cream applied twice daily for 2-4 weeks. Additionally, you can use a medicated shampoo containing selenium sulfide to wash the affected area. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry to prevent further spread of the infection.

I've been using Cutihyde and Momerex creams for my black spots for about 4 years now. They worked great, but every time I try to stop, the spots come back. I even tried using different creams like one with kojic acid, but they didn't work for me. I haven't used Cutihyde and Momerex creams since last month, and now the spots are bigger than ever. I'm really worried about this and I feel embarrassed facing people. Can you help me figure out what I should do?
It seems like you have been dealing with stubborn black spots on your face. Since you have already tried cutihyde and momerex creams which were effective but the spots reappear when you stop using them, I would recommend trying a combination of creams containing hydroquinone, tretinoin, and a corticosteroid. You can use a cream like Tri-Luma, applying a thin layer once daily at night. Make sure to use sunscreen during the day as these ingredients can increase sensitivity to the sun. Additionally, incorporating a vitamin C serum in your skincare routine can also help with fading dark spots. Remember to be patient as it may take some time to see results.
