I've been having some issues after doing a DIY Brazilian wax at home a few days ago. Everything seemed fine at first, but on the third day, I started feeling really itchy around my outer labia and anus area and noticed some big bumps that felt like mosquito bites. It's pretty uncomfortable, and aloe gel hasn't really helped. What should I do to treat this? Any advice would really help!

I've just noticed these strange red lines on my left thumb, index finger, and ring finger. They seem to appear in pairs of two. I'm 20, and this happened right after I did a 30-minute mini trampoline workout. Could the workout have something to do with it? Should I be concerned about these marks? What could this be?

I'm planning my wedding and the stress of acne is really getting to me. The doctor prescribed me Deriva CMS gel for my acne, but I'm really worried it might make things worse before they get better, especially with my big day coming up. Does this gel really cause acne to increase at the start? Im just so confused about whether I should start using it now. Any advice would be massively helpful.
Deriva CMS gel is a topical retinoid treatment that contains adapalene, which can help reduce acne. Initial Breakout or Purge: Yes, it's common for Deriva CMS gel to cause an initial breakout or "purge" phase, especially during the first 2-4 weeks of treatment. This can manifest as: 1. Increased redness and inflammation 2. More noticeable acne lesions 3. Skin sensitivity or irritation This initial breakout is usually a sign that the treatment is working, as it pushes underlying blockages and bacteria to the surface. Pre-Wedding Concerns: Given your upcoming wedding, it's understandable that you're concerned about the potential initial breakout. However, it's essential to remember that: 1. The initial breakout is usually temporary and subsides within a few weeks. 2. Deriva CMS gel can help improve your skin's appearance and reduce acne in the long run.
