I'm really worried because my skin has gotten so dull over the past couple of months. My engagement is coming up on the 28th of this month, and I really want to get my fair skin back before then. I've heard about melacare ointment and was wondering if it's safe and effective to use for this purpose. What do you think, should I try it?

I've been dealing with these recurring boils at the back of my neck right where my hairline is for over 34 years now. They're really painful, and I'm wondering if there's anything more I can do about it. I keep good hygiene and wash my hair every other day with a mild shampoo. Health-wise, I feel fine otherwise. Any advice on what might be causing this or what else I could try?

Recurring boils in the same area can be due to a condition called furunculosis, which is a skin infection involving hair follicles. To help treat and prevent these boils, you can use an antibacterial wash like Hibiclens to cleanse the area daily. Applying an antibiotic ointment like Neosporin can also help. In some cases, your doctor may prescribe oral antibiotics like Augmentin to clear the infection. Additionally, maintaining good hygiene practices and avoiding tight clothing around the neck area can help prevent further outbreaks.
