I'm using Betnovate N cream for my pimple marks, but I'm not sure if it will really help clear up my skin issues. Is this the right treatment for pimple marks, or should I be trying something else? I'm a bit worried about wasting time or making my skin worse. What do you think?

I'm currently using Panderm plus or Panderm NM for a short-term period and would love to get your advice on any other effective creams that might be better. My skin is quite dark, and I'm hoping to lighten it to at least a dusky shade. Can you suggest anything that might help?

no it has no role in brightening the skin,donot use it without your doctors advise , it is used for any bacterial or fungal infection and dark complexion is equally healthy and beatiful like other skin tones ,no need to worry.

I'm dealing with a boil near my buttock, kind of close to the anus, and it's been there for the past two days. It's not too big yet but is a bit painful, especially when I sit down. There's just this one boil, but I'm really worried it might grow larger and become more painful. I started taking Augmentin 625 mg once a day at night and so far, I've only taken one tablet last night. Should I keep taking the antibiotics? Is it even necessary? Some of my friends mentioned it might be due to body heatcould that be true? This is the first time I've experienced something like this, and I could really use some advice.

Yes youc take that tablet as twice daily for 5 days,if its stille persisting or becoming worse visit dermatologist for evaluation and appropriate management.
