I've been having a burning and painful sensation between my hips for about a week now, and it seems to be because of this pimple-like thing that popped up. The pain is spreading all over that area, and it's really uncomfortable. Could you suggest any ointments or tablets that might help me get rid of it? I'm really worried and could use some advice on what to do.

View allI've been worried about a skin issue that started after I used MemopiHC cream on my entire face instead of just the affected area. It's been around 8 months now, but I'm still dealing with redness around my nose. I used the cream for about 15 days, and ever since, I've noticed this redness. Can you give me some advice on how to help my skin recover from this?
I recommend using a gentle moisturizer like Cetaphil Moisturizing Cream twice a day on the affected area to help soothe and hydrate the skin. In addition, you can apply a thin layer of a topical corticosteroid cream like Hydrocortisone 1% cream once a day to reduce inflammation and redness. Make sure to avoid using any harsh products on your face and protect your skin from sun exposure by using a broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least SPF 30. If the redness persists or worsens, it is best to consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and management.

Is melanocyte transplantation an option for treating stable vitiligo? I've had it for about 8 months now and wondering if this surgery could help
Yes, melanocyte transplantation can be an option for treating stable vitiligo, particularly in cases where other treatments have not been successful. It involves surgically transferring melanocytes (pigment-producing cells) from a healthy area of skin to the depigmented areas of vitiligo. This procedure can help repigment the skin and restore color
