I've been noticing these pimples popping up on my cheeks ever since I had chicken pox, and they just seem to be getting worse each day. Is this normal, and what can I do about it? Should I be concerned?

I'm trying to figure out what esmoist lotion is for. Is it something I can use as a daily moisturizer, and is it safe to use it permanently? I'm really curious about its benefits and any potential long-term effects. Any advice would be appreciated!

I'm struggling with vitiligo for the past 4 years and it's really concerning me. I've got these white patches on my neck and chest, and nothing seems to work. I followed a treatment plan for 34 months with tablets like Orofer after lunch, Meganeuron in the morning, used Melgain lotion after a bath, got some sun exposure before lunch, and applied Tacoz forte ointment at night, but there's been no improvement. I'm from Mumbai and Marine Lines is the closest station to me. Can you please guide me on what I might be doing wrong or if there's an alternative treatment I should consider?

Usually vitiligo is a chronic disease and takes time to heal,have patience and continue the treatment as advised by your doctor,consume protein rich food for better results.

I started using Momate lotion and was wondering, am I supposed to wash it off after 30 minutes? I forgot to ask my doctor about it. Could you help me out?

No need to wash it you leave it whole night.
