I've been dealing with this rash that keeps showing up, and it's got these clear fluid-filled blisters or small bumps. There's itching that comes and goes, and I can't figure out what's causing it. Could you help me understand what might be going on and how I might be able to treat it?

I was wondering if Kojivit Ultra Gel contains any steroids. I'm using it to help with hyperpigmentation, dark spots, and uneven skin tone. Would love to know if it's safe!

I'm a 33-year-old guy and I've been using Minokem N 5 lotion, which has Minoxidil, Azelaic acid, and Tretinoin, for about 7 years now. While my hair loss seems under control, I haven't seen any major hair growth. So far, I haven't experienced any side effects, but I'm a bit worried about whether there could be any long-term effects if I keep using this. Is this combo safe to use indefinitely, or should I be looking out for any specific issues?

Long-term use of Minokem N 5% lotion (Minoxidil + Azelaic acid + Tretinoin) may lead to potential side effects, such as skin irritation, dryness, or allergic reactions, although rare; while minoxidil is generally safe for long-term use, azelaic acid and tretinoin may increase skin sensitivity, and prolonged use of tretinoin can lead to skin thinning or increased risk of skin cancer; consult a dermatologist to assess your individual risk-benefit profile and determine if lifelong use is advisable, considering regular monitoring and potential adjustments to your treatment plan.

I'm dealing with molluscum contagiosum and tried using Retino A ointment, but it doesn't seem to be working. I'm really not keen on having surgery to remove them. Is there any other treatment option that could help get rid of molluscum?
