I'm wondering if Clobeta GM is good for treating pimples and dark spots, or if it's meant for something else. Could you explain what exactly this ointment is used for?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Clobeta GM ointment is not typically used for pimples or dark spots. It is commonly used to treat various skin conditions such as eczema, psoriasis, and dermatitis. The ointment contains Clobetasol, Gentamicin, and Miconazole which help reduce inflammation, itching, and redness associated with these skin conditions. It is important to use this ointment as directed by your healthcare provider to avoid any potential side effects.

View allI've been dealing with skin acne all over my back and hands, and it's been really frustrating. I went for a checkup and was given Kevon stay-on lotion to try, but I haven't seen any improvement. Any idea why it's not working, or is there something else I should do?
You are suffering from what Dermatologist call tropical acne. In this condition, pimples erupt on the back and shoulder area which then subside after few days with pigmentation. The treatment is not very complicated. It can be treated with tablets, creams, and soap. Maintenance treatment may be required to cover for recurrence. Please don't apply oil on your head.

I've been worried about a leech bite I got on a trek back in late September. It was just a small bite on my left leg, but instead of drying up like the ones on my right foot, it seems to be getting bigger and a bit darker. It's been over two months, and I'm not sure if it's turning into an infection because I feel a slight pain when I press on it. I've been using turmeric and coconut oil, but it doesn't seem to help much. Should I be concerned? Is there something else I should do to treat it?
The leech bite on your left leg that has not completely dried out even after two months and is slowly getting bigger and blacker may indeed be infected. The slight pain when you press on it also suggests inflammation. I recommend cleaning the area with antiseptic solution and applying an antibiotic ointment like Neosporin twice a day. Additionally, you can take an oral antibiotic like Amoxicillin 500mg three times a day for 7-10 days to help clear up the infection. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry, and avoid scratching or picking at the bite. If the infection does not improve or if you develop fever or worsening symptoms, please seek medical attention promptly.
