I've been dealing with molluscum for about three months now, and it's been really frustrating. I've been visiting a dermatologist every week, and they keep removing around 45 pimples on my face each time using needling. My doctor suggested I use a spray called Glizigen four times a day and also take some tablets to boost my immunity. But honestly, I'm not really seeing much improvement. Is there something more I should be doing, or does this treatment just take more time to show results?

I accidentally put undiluted Dettol on my nose and chin a few days ago, and when it started burning, I washed it off. This morning, I noticed that the skin feels really tight, dry, and flaky. When I tried to peel it off, the skin underneath looks red and is still burning. I'm worried about how to treat this and avoid any scars. What should I do?

No need to worry there is no further complications with this, and the reaction might be due to concentrated Dettol, it usually heals on its own if the exposed area is large and giving you pain , visit your Dermatologist for appropriate treatment.
