I'm worried because I've been using Melacare for the last four years, and now my face has become really oily. I'm planning to stop using it, but I'm not sure what to do. Melacare hasn't given me any allergies, but I want to reduce the oiliness. Could you suggest how I can stop this oily production on my face?

you cannot stop it abruptly, wean it off slowly in two weeks by applying alternate days for a week and two days once in a week and soo,for alternate suggestion visit your dermatologist for appropriate treatment.

I'm wondering if using Chandni Whitening Cream is good for my skin's fairness. Are there any side effects I should be aware of? Could you suggest some creams or remedies for improving skin fairness?

Chandni Whitening Cream may contain harsh ingredients like hydroquinone, steroids, or mercury, which can have side effects like skin thinning, irritation, or permanent damage; for safer alternatives, consider consulting a dermatologist and using creams containing natural ingredients like niacinamide, vitamin C, or licorice extract, which can help even out skin tone and promote fairness.

I'm really worried about my herpes infection. I just had an STD panel done and it showed Herpes IgM at 0.50 and IgG at 12.4, with HIV coming back negative. I keep having frequent recurrences of genital herpes and it's really stressing me out. Can you help me understand what's going on and how I can manage or cure this infection? Im willing to try anything.

For the treatment of recurrent genital herpes, you can take antiviral medications such as Valacyclovir at the first sign of symptoms. This can help to reduce the severity and duration of the outbreak. Additionally, you can also use topical antiviral creams such as Acyclovir cream to apply on the affected area. It is important to consult with your healthcare provider for proper evaluation and management of your condition.
