Question 1

I've been using a benzoyl peroxide face wash and applying deriva BPO and CMS gel as my night cream for over two weeks, but I haven't noticed any improvements. Is this normal? Should I be seeing results by now? I'm kind of worried if I'm doing something wrong. Any advice or suggestions?

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. Please call me or send your photos through online consult option for detailed prescription and diet advice.,,

For the management of Psoriasis and eczema with allergic eruptions, in addition to your current antihistamines, I recommend adding a topical corticosteroid cream like Betnovate to reduce inflammation and itching. Apply a thin layer to the affected areas once or twice daily. Also, you can use a moisturizer like Cetaphil to keep the skin hydrated. Furthermore, you can consider taking an immunosuppressant medication like Methotrexate under the guidance of a dermatologist to help control the autoimmune response causing Psoriasis. This should be taken once a week in a prescribed dosage. It's important to continue with regular follow-ups with your dermatologist to monitor your condition and adjust the treatment plan as needed.

For immediate relief, you can try using Terbinafine cream (brand name Lamisil) twice a day on the affected areas. Additionally, taking oral antifungal medication like Fluconazole (brand name Diflucan) can help clear up the infection from within. Make sure to keep the affected areas clean and dry, and avoid sharing personal items to prevent spreading the infection.

Question 5

I just got my blood test results and saw that my absolute eosinophil count is 700 cumm. Do you think this means I have an allergy? Could you let me know what I should do about it?

Accepted Answer

An absolute eosinophil count of 700 cumm may indicate an allergic reaction or an infection. To help reduce your symptoms, you can take Tablet Loratadine 10mg once daily for allergy relief. Additionally, you can use an over-the-counter nasal spray like Fluticasone propionate 50mcgspray, 2 sprays in each nostril once daily for nasal congestion. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
