I've been dealing with scalp folliculitis for the past three years, and it just won't go away. Is there any actual cure or solution for this condition? It's become really frustrating. What options should I consider?

View allI'm really curious about what's going on with the left side of my waist. It's been really itchy and irritated for weeks, especially where my pants sit. There are some red bumps that look like a rash, but it doesn't hurt, just itches a lot! It's only in one small area about the size of an orange. I'm pretty sure it's not Shingles because I'm not in pain. And I do have allergies sometimes. What could this be?

I'm struggling with these holes from past pimples on my face, and they just won't seem to go away. I've also got these whiteheads on my nose that are really stubborn. I'm really curious if there are any home remedies you could recommend to help with these issues. Would love to hear what you think!
You can try using a topical retinoid cream such as Retin-A. Apply a pea-sized amount to the affected areas at night. This can help improve skin texture and promote collagen production to fill in the indentations over time. To get rid of whiteheads on the nose, you can try using products containing salicylic acid. A good option is Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Wash, which contains salicylic acid to help unclog pores and reduce whiteheads. Use it as a face wash once or twice daily. Additionally, you can make a homemade face mask using honey and cinnamon. Mix one tablespoon of honey with half a teaspoon of cinnamon powder and apply it to your face. Leave it on for 10-15 minutes before rinsing off with warm water. Honey has antibacterial properties, while cinnamon can help improve blood circulation to the skin. Remember to patch test any new products or ingredients on a small area of skin to check for any adverse reactions before applying them to larger areas of the face.
