I've been using Faiza cream for about six months, but after I stopped, my face broke out with pimples and acne, and it's gotten way oilier. I'm really worried about this. How can I recover from these issues and work towards getting fairer skin? Can you please help me?

To help with the pimples, acne, and oily skin, you can try using a gentle cleanser containing salicylic acid to unclog pores and reduce oiliness. Additionally, a topical retinoid cream like Retin-A can help with acne and promote skin cell turnover. To lighten your skin, you can consider using a cream containing hydroquinone or kojic acid, but make sure to use it under the guidance of a healthcare professional. Remember to always use sunscreen during the day to protect your skin.

View allI'm struggling with a pretty stubborn case of jock itch. It's been lingering for about a month, and even though it's a bit better now, the itching is still quite intense. Can you suggest a good antifungal cream to help clear this up?
-For jock itch, you can use Clotrimazole cream (e.g., Candid or Lotrimin) or Ketoconazole cream (e.g., Nizoral). Apply a thin layer twice daily after washing and drying the area thoroughly. Continue using it for at least 2 weeks after the itching subsides

I'm going through some serious hair loss since I had dengue back in March. It's been really tough, especially since I'm a med student myself. My doc initially suggested minoxidil, but after checking it out online, I stopped using it after about 10 days. My hair fall seemed to get worse, so I went back, and now I'm on Percos hair serum. I'm really anxious and curious if Percos has any side effects and if it's okay to stop using it at some point. Also, I've heard about cysteine treatment at Lakme, and I wonder if I can try that alongside my current treatment. I'm using Revilus shampoo and taking Actilife and Antoxid. Any advice?

I've been dealing with these recurring rashes on my foreskin, and it's getting frustrating. I've seen several doctors, and while the meds help for a bit, the rashes just keep coming back after a few months. Any idea why this keeps happening or what else I can do to prevent it?
