I've got this fungal infection on my left hand, and I'm wondering if it's okay to take candiforce 100 for it. Could you give me some details on how it works, what I should expect, or any possible side effects?

I've been noticing some white stuff showing up on my face after I shower or wash it, and it's really bothering me. Could you tell me what's going on and what I should use to make it go away?

After taking shower or washing your face, the white stuff appearing on your face is likely sebum mixed with dead skin cells. This can be managed by using a gentle exfoliating cleanser containing salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide. You can try using a face wash like Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Wash with 2.5% benzoyl peroxide once daily. Remember to moisturize your skin afterwards to prevent dryness.

I'm really concerned about my underarm situation. Since I stopped waxing, there's been a little improvement in the darkness, but I'm not sure what to do next. Should I consider chemical peels or laser treatments for the best results? Hydroquinone didn't work for me. I'm just worried because my dermatologist suggested chemical peels but didnt do any tests beforehand. Can peels make the darkness worse?

chemical peeling would definitely work but laser treatment would show better result,follow your doctors advise because treatment modality depends on intensity and area involved for darkness.

I've been dealing with a bit of a situation and could really use some advice. I had this small pimple on my forehead, and I ended up popping it early. I cleaned it up, but there was a bit of bleeding. I used some undiluted Dettol on a cotton swab to clean it, but that just made it worse and caused some irritation and a burn. I've tried soothing it with aloe vera gel, but now there's this dark circle, and it's been a few days. Any ideas on what medicine could help clear this up quickly?

Clinsol gel for local application is advised for 3-6 weeks.
