I've been getting a lot of pimples and bumps on my cheeks and forehead lately, and it's really bothering me. I tried using Aclind BP 5 gel once a day at night and kept it on for about 3 to 4 hours before washing it off and applying moisturizer. It's been just three days, but my skin's turned red, and there's this itchiness and slight burning. I'm worried if I should stop using it? Any suggestions on how to get rid of these pimples?

I'm dealing with Androgenic Alopecia and in the past, I've seen good results with Minoxidil and Finasteride. However, after my daughter was born, I stopped using them for about two years and now I've lost my hair again. I'm considering starting Minoxidil lotion again, but I'm worried. If my daughter shares my pillow, could it have any negative effects on her skin or hair? I really don't want to cause her any problems.

try using separate pillows from now and use minoxidil 30min before bed

I've been dealing with some pimples on my penis and testicles for the past couple of days. I'm worried because I had sex about two months ago, and I'm not sure if there's any connection. Is it normal to have pimples in that area? They really hurt and itch a lot. I tried washing them with Dettol thinking it might be some fungal thing, but it burned pretty bad. What should I do next?

It's important to avoid using harsh chemicals like Dettol on sensitive areas, as it can cause irritation. Pimples on the penis and testicles can be caused by various factors, including irritation, infection, or clogged pores. It would be best to see a healthcare provider for a proper diagnosis and appropriate treatment.
