Is it okay to use Skinlite cream for dark spots? I've been applying it weekly for an hour at night for the past month. Is this the right way to use it, or should I be doing something different?

I'm noticing my skin tone is getting darker since I moved to Chennai, and I'm really concerned about it. I'm also breaking out with pimple-like wounds all over my body, which I think might be due to the heat. I usually walk to the office around 8:45 am, and my skin is exposed to the sun for just about 10 minutes. I use VLCC sunblock with SPF 30PA and even cover my face with a scarf, but the darkening is happening all over, including on areas like my legs, stomach, and back, which are covered. I'm not sure if it's just the sun causing this. Can you help me figure out how to lighten my skin tone?

I'm dealing with tinea cruris and used RABHICO Skin Ointment, which is similar to btex. Now I'm experiencing redness, pain, and swelling over a large area. What should I do about this reaction? Is it normal, or should I be worried?
It sounds like you may be experiencing an adverse reaction to the ointment you used. Stop using it immediately and soothe your skin with a cool compress, moisturizers, and anti-inflammatory creams. If the symptoms persist, it's essential to consult a doctor for a proper diagnosis and alternative treatment for your tinea cruris.
