I've been dealing with molluscum contagiosum and tried using Retino-A ointment, but it doesn't seem to be working. I really don't want to go the surgical route are there any other effective treatments to get rid of molluscum?

View allI've been using Melamet cream for dark spot removal, and I saw it contains Hydroquinone, Tretinoin, and Mometasone Furoate. I'm a bit concerned about whether it's safe to use this regularly on my face. Could you share some advice on this?

I've been getting these cyst-like things on my waist, mostly on one side. They fill up with pus and blood and stick around for about 35 days before they finally go away. It sometimes happens under my thighs too, but not as often. It's kind of worrying me. What could be causing this, and what should I do about it?

I've had this pea-sized lump on my bikini line for almost two years now. It sometimes oozes pus, and while I've had similar ones before, they've never lasted this longusually just a week or so. This one feels hard and sometimes shrinks a lot, but then it puffs back up again. Should I be worried about it, and what could it possibly be?
It sounds like you may have a recurrent abscess in your bikini area. I recommend using an antibiotic ointment like Neosporin and applying it to the affected area twice a day after cleaning it with mild soap and water. You can also take an over-the-counter pain reliever like ibuprofen to help with any discomfort. If the lump does not improve or if you develop a fever, please seek medical attention for further evaluation and possible drainage of the abscess.
