I'm taking azithral 500 for my acne and it's been two days, but now I'm dealing with diarrhea because of it. Should I keep taking the antibiotics, or is it better to stop? I'm worried if there might be any other side effects too. What do you suggest?

View allI'm really struggling with this skin issue that's been bothering me since I was thirteen. I have this mole that's the same color as my skin, which I tried treating with baking soda, but that was too awkward to keep up with, so I just covered it with a bandage. Eventually, it fell off, but now there's another oneit's bigger and swollen, around 2 cm on my jaw. I've been trying homeopathic medicine which seems to be helping a bit with the swelling, but it's still there. A doctor suggested laser treatment, but I'm really scared of that. I've been using coconut oil as a home remedy, but I'm concerned about the scar it might leave. Could you advise on any natural treatment options that might help with both the mole and its scar?
I would recommend using a topical cream containing hydroquinone to help lighten the scar left by the mole. You can apply it twice a day for several weeks to see improvement. Additionally, you can try using silicone gel sheets to help flatten and fade the scar. As for the mole itself, since it has reduced in size with homeopathic treatment, you can continue applying coconut oil regularly to see if it further helps in reducing it. If you want to explore other options, you can consider consulting a dermatologist who may suggest other topical treatments or procedures like cryotherapy to remove the mole.

I've been using erythego gel for my Rosacea for about a year and a half without issues since it was prescribed by my doctor. But lately, I've developed contact dermatitis, and now every time I apply the gel, it seems to make things worse. Could the gel be causing my contact dermatitis?
Erythego gel contains erythromycin, which is an antibiotic commonly used to treat acne and rosacea. However, some individuals may develop an allergic reaction to erythromycin, leading to contact dermatitis. I recommend stopping the use of erythego gel and consulting with your doctor for an alternative treatment option for your rosacea.
