I've been using benzac AC 2.5 as my doctor recommended, but Ive noticed that every time I apply it, my skin starts itching. Do you know why this might be happening, or what I should do about it?

I've been noticing that I'm getting these small boils on both of my hands. It's really frustrating because they leave dark scars after they heal. I'm wondering if there's anything I can do to get rid of these scars and maybe even prevent the boils from happening in the first place? Any advice would be really appreciated!

For the small boils on your hands, you can use an antibiotic ointment like Neosporin to help prevent infection and promote healing. Additionally, you can take an over-the-counter pain reliever like ibuprofen to help with any discomfort. To get rid of the dark scars leftover by the boils, you can try using a scar treatment cream like Mederma. Apply it to the affected areas according to the package instructions. It may take some time for the scars to fade, so be patient and consistent with the treatment.
