Can I take Perfectil vitamins if I mostly just get the occasional pimple but have really dark eyelids and circles under my eyes? My hair has been thinning as well, and I'm 25. I'm worried because it has 10 mg of biotin. Is that okay to take?

No use. The treatment of acne differs according to the grade of involvement. Some people have more oilyness on the face which results in breakouts. After completing treatment for controlling the active breakouts, tablets can be stopped and creams need to be continued to prevent recurrence. Diet and lifestyle modifications are also important. Please don't do any self treatment such as over the counter Steroid creams. Don't burst the pimples with your fingers as it can result in ugly scars. The marks and pores left behind after the pimples heal can also be treated.

I'm really concerned because I have this red rash on my side, right above my waist. It started off small but has grown bigger. When I looked into it, the symptoms kind of match hives, but it also looks like ringworm. The weird part is that it doesnt really itch. Could this be something serious or is it just a rash that will go away on its own? What should I do about it?

That could be P.versicolor infection,maintain personal hygiene,visit dermatologist for appropriate management.
