I've been given Onabet SD topical solution for a scalp issue. Can you tell me how to apply it? Do I need to leave it in, or should I wash it out after a while? I'm a bit confused about the right way to use it.

View allI've been struggling with frequent pimples for quite some time now. I started using Lobate GM about four years ago, but the pimples just keep coming back, especially if I try to switch my face wash. Lately, it's been really bad, mostly on my forehead, and I'm not sure what to do. I'm currently in Chennai working for an MNC, and it's becoming pretty frustrating to manage. Can you suggest a complete solution for this ongoing issue? It would be great if you could also recommend any ointments that might suit my skin type.
To address your persistent pimple issue, consider consulting a dermatologist in Chennai for personalized guidance; in the meantime, maintain a consistent skincare routine, use non-comedogenic products, and avoid changing face washes frequently; regarding Lobate GM cream, it contains neomycin and clotrimazole, which may not be suitable for long-term use, so consider alternative treatments like benzoyl peroxide, salicylic acid, or tea tree oil-based products, and for specific product recommendations, consult your dermatologist, who can prescribe suitable ointments or creams based on your skin type and condition.

I've been dealing with these boils in my pubic area for a few days now, and they're making it tough for me to walk. I've tried using a hot compress and antifungal powder, which helps a bit, but only temporarily. I'm not sure what more I can do. Just in case it matters, I haven't eaten sweets in over two months. Any advice on this would be really appreciated. What could be causing these, and how can I treat them effectively?
It sounds like you may be dealing with a bacterial infection causing the boils. I recommend using an antibiotic ointment like Neosporin or Bacitracin on the boils after cleansing the area with mild soap and water. Additionally, you can take oral antibiotics like Augmentin or Bactrim to help clear up the infection. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry, and avoid tight clothing to reduce friction. If the boils persist or worsen, please consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.P.s I haven't had sweets since more than 2 months..."
