I'm starting to eat more dry fruits like figs, apricots, and almonds. But I'm a bit worried they might cause acne. I know everyone says theyre healthy, but I have sensitive skin, and I'm not sure if these can trigger breakouts. Have you seen this happen before? Should I be cautious with certain types like black raisins or walnuts?

I've been using Cloben G for treating pimples for about six months and decided to stop it recently, but now my face is super itchy with small red bumps. Any idea why this is happening and what I can do to fix it?

I've been wondering if there's a link between masturbation, watching porn, and acne. Some stuff I read online says it's a myth, while others mention it could increase androgen levels, leading to acne. Could you clarify this for me? I'm really curious and a bit worried about whether this is something I should be concerned about.

_Understanding Combination Antibiotic Therapy for Nail Wound Infection_ Your doctor has prescribed a combination of Linid 600 (linezolid) and Clavmox 625 (amoxicillin-clavulanate) to treat the infection in your nail wound. Here's why: _Reasons for Combination Therapy:_ 1. _Broad-spectrum coverage_: By combining two antibiotics with different mechanisms of action, your doctor aims to cover a broader range of potential bacteria causing the infection. 2. _Increased efficacy_: Combination therapy can enhance the effectiveness of treatment, especially in cases where the infection is caused by multiple types of bacteria. 3. _Reduced resistance_: Using two antibiotics together can help reduce the development of antibiotic resistance, making treatment more successful. _Specific Antibiotic Choices:_ 1. _Linezolid (Linid 600)_*: Effective against Gram-positive bacteria, including MRSA (methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus). 2. _Amoxicillin-clavulanate (Clavmox 625)_*: Effective against a wide range of bacteria, including Gram-positive, Gram-negative, and anaerobic bacteria. _Following Doctor's Advice:_ 1. _Complete the full course_: Take both antibiotics exactly as prescribed for the full duration of treatment, even if symptoms improve before completing the course. 2. _Monitor for side effects_: Inform your doctor if you experience any side effects, such as diarrhea, nausea, or allergic reactions. _Important Notes:_ 1. _Antibiotic stewardship_: Using antibiotics responsibly helps prevent antibiotic resistance and ensures effective treatment. 2. _Wound care*: Proper wound care, including keeping the wound clean and dry, is essential for promoting healing and preventing further infection.
