I've been using Myfair cream on my face for the past two weeks, and it seems to be making my skin glow. I havent noticed any side effects so far. Should I keep using it, or would you advise otherwise?

It is not recommended to use Myfair cream for face glowing as it contains hydroquinone which can have potential side effects in the long term such as skin irritation, redness, and thinning of the skin. Instead, you can switch to a safer alternative like Kojic acid cream or Vitamin C serum for a more natural and gentle approach to achieve glowing skin. Apply a pea-sized amount of Kojic acid cream or Vitamin C serum on your face once daily in the evening for best results.

I'm having this really uncomfortable itching problem under my testicles for over ten days now. It seems to get really bad during a bath when I wash them with soap. The itching is so intense that the skin becomes really red, and there's muscle pain too. I've tried using Fore Derm ointment and Absorb dusting powder, but nothing's helping. What should I do?

I've been struggling with acne on my face and back, and I'm worried about the black marks it leaves behind. I've tried using Adalene Nanogel 15g as my doctor suggested, but it hasn't completely resolved the issue. Can you help me figure out how to get rid of the acne and those spots?

In addition to Adalene Nanogel, you can try using Benzoyl Peroxide gel (2.5%) in the morning and Adapalene gel (0.1%) at night. This combination can help reduce acne breakouts and prevent new ones from forming. For the black marks left by acne, you can use a skin lightening cream containing Hydroquinone (4%) and apply it only on the dark spots at night. Remember to use a sunscreen during the day to protect your skin from further darkening. Make sure to follow a gentle skincare routine, avoid picking or squeezing acne lesions, and maintain a healthy diet and lifestyle to improve your skin condition.

I've been noticing these small lumps on my cheekbone, right under my eye. They tend to swell up by themselves and then the swelling goes down after a few days, but then they come back after about a month. It's like a recurring cycle and I'm starting to get scars from them. Should I be worried about these lumps? What could be causing this?

That could be MILIA which is usually self limiting,no need to worry consume balanced diet and maintian healthy life style,do not try to squeeze them or scratch them.
