I'm really worried because last night I did something silly. I put toothpaste on my forehead to try and get rid of some acne and left it on overnight. This morning, part of my forehead looks like it might be burntlike a chemical burn. I'm kicking myself for it. Do you think it will heal on its own, or am I going to have a permanent mark? Could you recommend any medicine or home remedyjust not aloe vera since I can't get any? I'd really appreciate your help.

I've just gone through 9 sessions of laser therapy for my skin, and now I'm wondering if it's okay to use benzoyl peroxide on my face afterward. Are there any specific things I need to be cautious about after the laser treatment? Also, I've got a wedding coming up, and I'm thinking about getting a cosmetic facial about 15 days after the laser resurfacing. Do you think it'll be safe to do that?

Yes you can get it done,follow your doctors advice and consume protiene and vitamin rich foods

I'm dealing with this itching issue around the hairy area near my penis and some other parts nearby. Its not super severe, but its to the point where I need candid powder just to get out of bed and feel okay in the mornings. And I can't seem to step outside without a shower first. What's a permanent fix for this? Could you suggest something that can help in the long run?

It sounds like you may be experiencing a fungal infection in the groin area. To treat this condition, you can use an antifungal cream such as Clotrimazole cream twice daily for 2-4 weeks. Additionally, you can take oral antifungal medication like Fluconazole 150mg once a week for 4 weeks. It is important to maintain good hygiene, keep the area clean and dry, and avoid wearing tight clothing. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please consult a doctor for further evaluation and management.

I'm currently being treated for shingles, and I'm just trying to figure out how serious it is. Is there a quick way to get better, like with an injection or something? And once it clears up, will there be any marks left on my skin?
