I've got this dark chickenpox scar on my nose and it's really bothering me. What treatment options are there to help get rid of it? Any advice would be really helpful.

You can consider using a topical cream containing hydroquinone, such as Melalite cream. Apply a thin layer on the affected area once daily in the evening. Additionally, using a scar-reducing gel like Contractubex can also help in reducing the appearance of the holes. Make sure to follow the instructions provided with the products for best results.

View allCan I put betanovate gm cream on my genital area? My scrotum and penis are itching really bad. I tried setrabate after an online doctor recommended it, but the itching hasn't stopped. The doctor also suggested betanovate gm or hhzole, but the pharmacist said betanovate gm is better. I'm also using candidforce 100, which helps with the itch, but when I stop, the itching comes back, and it makes me feel like cutting things off. Any advice on what I should do?
Continue all the medications, hhzole cream for local application for 2-3 weeks, tab canditral 100mg once daily for 3 weeks and tab levocetrizine 10 mg at bedtime for 7 days after food.

I've been using NilacA gel for three days and I'm noticing that my face looks kind of whitish now. Is this normal? I started using it for my pimples and I'm not sure if I should be worried about this change in skin color. Can you help me understand what's happening and if I should continue using it or stop?
The whitening of the face could be a side effect of using Nilac-A gel. It is important to discontinue the gel and consult a dermatologist for further evaluation. In the meantime, you can use a gentle cleanser and moisturizer to help with any irritation.
