I've been struggling with really bad body odor, and I'm feeling pretty self-conscious about it. It's like whenever I sweat, the smell becomes overwhelming, and even when I'm not sweating, my natural body smell just isn't pleasant. I'm starting to worry and wonder if there's anything I can do to improve this situation. Any advice would be highly appreciated.

I've got a pretty big boil on my left calf, and after a while, it started leaking pus and blood for around 15 days. It's been about 10 days since I began using antibiotics and ointment, as my dermatologist suggested, but it still isn't healing. I change the dressing with silver sulphadiazine gel every time. I'm really worried and wondering what might be going on. Any idea why it's not improving?

Which face wash is best for pimples?

Face wash with either salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide may help in removing dead skin cells which clogs the pores leading to acne. Either of them may help only in mild grade of acne. You can choose face wash with salicylic acid if you have blackheads, whiteheads and comedones and face wash with benzoyl peroxide if you have pus filled pimples.

I'm using Minoxidil and I've noticed some unwanted hair growing on my ear. Plus, I've seen an increase in hair fall on my head since I started using it. I'm curious if the hair on my earlobe will go away once I stop the Minoxidil. Should I be concerned about this?
