I've been having some issues with acne, especially whiteheads, and I think it might be a side effect from the B12 injections I had. The injections were Nervijen Plus and had ingredients like Folic Acid, Methylcobalamin, and Niacinamide. I got two shots, one on December 25th, 2017, and the other on January 1st, 2018. I'm wondering how long this acne could last? Every morning there's a new whitehead popping up. It's not as bad as it was, but it's still pretty annoying. Is there anything I can do or take to make this stop?

The acne caused by the B12 injection should subside on its own within 2-3 months, and to manage it, maintain good skincare habits, use acne treatments, avoid picking or popping whiteheads, and consider consulting a dermatologist for personalized advice.

View allI was admitted to the hospital for a bedsore about 10 days ago and was given antibiotics. The heel is healing slowly but some parts still don't seem fully healed. The doctors initially mentioned plastic surgery but later said it should get better on its own. Should I keep taking the antibiotics or switch to betadine ointment now? The wound looks better but not completely closed.
Kindly consult plastic surgeon Sacral bed sore It will take time to heal May require surgery antibiotic and regular dressings Kindly keep the area clean Use air mattress Keep changing the posture of patient

I recently got bitten by an insect they call the Nairobi fly, and now there's this blister on my skin that's turned into scabby scales. Does the whole blistering thing and scabbiness mean it's healing, or should I be worried about it? Also, after seeing my doctor, they mentioned something about an injection. Do you think this will help with the healing process, or is there something else I should be doing?
Nairobi flies don't bite, but their body releases a toxin when in contact with the skin. Secondary infection by scratching is to be avoided. See a skin specialist if needed.

I'm noticing some white patches on the skin of my penis and on the head too. They're discolored and I'm starting to get worried. Is this something serious that I should be concerned about? Also, I'm dealing with premature ejaculation. What could be causing these issues and what should I do about them?
