I've been using Betnovate N cream on and off for about 10 years, and now I've got these dark spots on my cheeks near my nose. I'm seeing a dermatologist who told me to use Azelaic acid cream 20 at night for just 30 minutes and Dermadew Glow cream during the day. It's almost been a month and I don't really see any improvement. I'm really stressed about these spots. What do you think about this treatment?

View allI'm considering using Bellissa Lite cream for my face, but I'm a bit worried about whether it's actually safe. Could there be any side effects from using this cream? Would you be able to help me understand if it's okay to apply on my skin?
Generally safe for use on the face, but like any skincare product, it may cause side effects in some individuals. Some common side effects that may occur include skin irritation, redness, or dryness. It is always recommended to do a patch test before applying any new product on your face.

I've been having this burning pain in my left armpit for the past two weeks. I got an ultrasound of my breast, and it showed enlarged lymph nodes in both armpits and a cyst in one breast. But the doctor said that couldn't be the cause of the burning. I'm really curious why there's still this burning sensation. I did notice some redness and irritation in the same armpit about three weeks ago after using some perfume, but that seems to have gotten better. There's no burning in my right armpit. Are there any ideas on what could be causing this since I don't see any visible patch?
This could be due to irritation from the previous reaction to perfume or other underlying causes. I recommend taking an over-the-counter anti-inflammatory medication like ibuprofen to help with the pain and inflammation. Additionally, applying a topical pain relief cream containing lidocaine may provide some relief. If the pain persists, you may need a prescription for a medication like gabapentin to help with nerve pain. Make sure to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and management.
