I've been dealing with whiteheads on my nose and chin for a while now. My doctor suggested using hhsalic ointment and taking Actilife tablets, but I haven't seen any improvement. Is there something else I could try? I'm really looking for any other treatments or advice that could help.

I've got these dark patches on my face and started using Dermadew Aloe lotion. Should I be applying it all over my face or just on the dark patches? I'm a bit confused about the best way to use it and could use some advice.

You can apply Dermadew Caloe lotion on the affected areas of your face where you have dark patches. Use a small amount of lotion and gently massage it into the skin until it is absorbed. Apply it twice daily for best results.

I've been feeling something unusual around a certain area when I move, like an extra growth or something. It's been kind of painful too, and lately, I've even noticed a burning sensation there. It's pretty uncomfortable and I'm not sure what's going on. Could you help me understand why this might be happening?

That could be Hemorrhoids, visit surgeon for evaluation and appropriate management and consume fibre rich foods and plenty of water
