Ive been dealing with this really annoying itching on my wrist. Then, after a day, it swelled up a bit. I tried using some turmeric powder and it seemed to help, but the next day the itchiness and the swelling came back, this time on the back of my hand, and the swelling was way worse. It kept getting bigger for about three days. I put some more turmeric paste on it, and now the swellings gone down on my hand but has moved to my fingers. The itchiness is still there, and the swelling is bad and hurts a bit. Could this be from an insect bite? What do you think I should do?

I've been using HH Lite cream at night, and it's really helped clear up my acne quite a bit. But Ive noticed my face tends to stay red a lot now. Also, whenever I have a night out with alcohol, I seem to break out with acne the next day. I tried taking an LCZ tablet for what I think might be an allergy, and it seems to help, but only to a certain extent. I'm curious about whether there are any side effects from this mix of treatments. Is there an alternative to HH Lite that might not cause redness or react with alcohol?
