I'm wondering if it's safe to use Laboderm OC ointment on my face to help get rid of spots. I've been really self-conscious about these spots and I'm not sure if this ointment is the right choice. Could you let me know if it's actually effective or if there might be any side effects I should be aware of? I've heard different things and just want to make sure I'm making a good decision for my skin.

I've been having some hair fall issues, so my doctor put me on these B12 supplements. But after about two weeks, I started getting really bad reactionslike rashes and acne on my hands and face. I stopped the supplements immediately, but it's been over a week, and my acne is still there and hasn't improved at all. Should I be doing something specific to help with this, or will it just clear up on its own eventually? I'm kind of worried and not sure what to do next.

I'm dealing with macular amyloidosis and I'm really curious if homeopathy can actually cure it. I've tried allopathy treatments like peels, lasers, and medications, but I was told it might come back. Is homeopathy able to eliminate it completely and prevent it from recurring?
