I've been using Deriva BPO gel for my moderate acne, but after a week, I started to notice some redness. Now, the redness has gone down, but there's still this dark area around my mouth. Could this be hyperpigmentation from the gel, or might it be caused by something else?

View allI've been having some issues since I tested positive for COVID on May 4th. At first, everything seemed fine, but about 2.5 weeks later, I noticed an allergy cropping up at the corners of my mouth. I tried using Sebamed lip balm during the day and Laneige lip sleeping mask at night, but the allergy spread to my upper and lower lips. Swelling and a burning sensation followed, and now there's even a rash on my face. I've also tried Vaseline, but no luck. What could this be, and how can I treat it? Would love some guidance!
Sounds like you may be experiencing an allergic reaction or contact dermatitis. I recommend stopping the use of all lip products and petroleum jelly for now. You can take an antihistamine such as Cetirizine to help with the itching and swelling. Additionally, you can apply a thin layer of hydrocortisone cream 1% on the affected areas of your lips and face twice a day for up to 7 days. Make sure to avoid any known allergens or irritants, and if the symptoms persist or worsen, please consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and management.

I'm really worried and need some advice. I've been using minoxidil for about 8 months now, but I'm unsure how to safely stop it. My hair has become very thin and my scalp is quite visible. What could be causing these issues with my scalp?
