I've been using mintop for the past 30 days and haven't noticed any side effects so far. I'm thinking about continuing it for another 3 months, but I'm a bit worried about any long-term effects. Is there anything I should be aware of when using mintop 10 foam for an extended period?

I've been dealing with acne issues and had been using clin3 clindamycin nicotinamide gel on my face for about four years. I stopped using it for about 23 weeks to try out some natural treatments, but my skin reacted badly since it's really sensitive and allergic to stuff like steam and lemon. I ended up with redness and itching after trying the natural route. I did use honey and multaani mitti, which didn't react but didn't really help either. So, I went back to using the clin3 gel, but now my face is swollen and sometimes itches. What should I do now? Can you help me out with some advice?

Acne Management: For managing acne long-term, its essential to use a consistent treatment plan that works for your skin. If youve been using Clin3 successfully for years, discuss with your dermatologist whether you should resume it or try an alternative that may be less irritating. Patch Test: If you're trying any new treatment (natural or over-the-counter), always do a patch test on a small part of your skin first to check for any allergic reactions.

I'm really concerned about my daughter's skin. She's getting these white spots on her face, and they seem to be getting bigger. We saw our pediatrician who thought it was a fungal infection and suggested an antifungal cream for 15 days. But after using it, there wasnt any improvement. So we went to a dermatologist, and he diagnosed it as pityriasis alba. He prescribed mixing Telenorm oil with coconut oil and applying it in the morning with a bit of sun exposure, plus using Flutivate E cream at night and a special shampoo, moisturizer, and soap. Im worried if this is the right treatment for pityriasis alba, or should I consider seeing another dermatologist for a second opinion?

That could be Fungal infection or Vitamin Deficiency, visit Dermatologist for evaluation and appropriate management
