I've got multiple lipomas all over my body and I'm wondering if there's a way to remove them without major surgery or if there are any other treatment options that might work better for me

For lipomas, several treatment options beyond major surgery exist, including steroid injections, liposuction, and minimal excision. Steroid injections can help shrink lipomas, especially smaller ones, by breaking down fat cells. Liposuction can remove lipomas, particularly in areas where scarring is undesirable. Minimal excision is a surgical technique that can reduce scarring.

I've been using multani mitti and apple cider vinegar on my face to try and clear up some acne, but now I'm dealing with some skin burn, a lot of redness, and even a little bit of peeling. What should I do about this? Is there a way to soothe my skin or should I be worried?

To treat the skin burn, redness, and peeling, you can use a mild corticosteroid cream like Hydrocortisone cream along with a gentle moisturizer like Cetaphil. Apply the Hydrocortisone cream twice a day on the affected areas and follow it up with the moisturizer. Additionally, you can take an oral antihistamine like Cetirizine to reduce any itching or inflammation. Make sure to avoid further use of multani mitti and apple cider vinegar on your face.

Is there something wrong with my treatment, or should I consider stopping the medication? What should I do?
