I'm using Persol forte for my acne and it's causing some irritation, redness, and even peeling on my skin. Should I stop using it or is there something I can do to help with these side effects? I'm a bit worried and would love some advice.

I'm worried because I've had this bump on my mons pubis for about six months now. It tends to swell and becomes painful, especially during my periods, but other times it's just there, like a little ball under the skin that I can feel when I touch it. I tried using a hot compress like my gynecologist suggested. While it helped with the swelling a bit, the bump still hasn't gone away. What could this be, and should I be doing something else to treat it?

Your complain should be addressed to a Dermatologist. You may have a Bartholin's cyst. You may need to take antibiotics. Additionally, you can use a sitz bath with warm water a few times a day to help with the discomfort. If the cyst persists, you may need a procedure called marsupialization to drain it.

I'm curious about the safety of using EGA cream compared to Procorrect cream. Do these creams have the same ingredients, and are they both used for treating acne and aging? I'm just wondering because I've seen both recommended for these issues, and I want to make sure I'm choosing the right one. Could you shed some light on this?

You can use either,better to visit Dermatologist for approrpriate management

I'm having this weird issue where every night my knees and elbows start itching, and I get these small rashes. I've been using Tetmosol soap and Dettol liquid when I bathe, but I'm not sure if that's helping. Do you have any idea what might be causing this or any suggestions on what I should do?

That could be due to allergy, identify the triggering factor and avoid it, maintain healthy lifestyle.
