I've been using HH Zole cream on my face for a couple of years now, like every week on the 7th day, just as a regular face cream. Initially, I got it to treat an itching problem, which cleared up, but I kept using it. Could this be harmful if I continue this way? Is there something I should be worried about?

I've been dealing with a stubborn boil on my butt and it got really inflamed and red, so my doctor put me on antibiotics for five days. The swelling has gone down since then, but the boil isn't completely healed yet. It still oozes a bit of pus and blood when I squeeze it, though it's almost flat now. I'm just a bit worried because it's taking longer to heal than I expected. Do you think this is normal? Should I be doing anything else to help it heal completely?

That will heal don't try to squeeze it, consume balanced diet

I'm currently taking isotretinoin 20 mg and I'm looking for a more budget-friendly alternative to the Ahaglow S face wash and Acne OC moisturizer. My skin is acne-prone and I'm hoping to find something affordable that still works well. Do you have any suggestions?

you can try using Cetaphil Oily Skin Cleanser. It is gentle on the skin and helps in controlling excess oil production. As for a substitute for Acne OC moisturizer, you can consider using Sebamed Clear Face Care Gel. It is suitable for acne-prone skin and provides the necessary hydration without clogging pores. Since you are currently using isotretinoin 20 mg, it is important to choose products that are gentle on the skin to avoid any irritation.
