I've just applied castor oil on my face for the first time, and suddenly I've got these small red bumps popping up all over. I'm not sure what's going on. Could you tell me what might be causing this and if there's any ointment or treatment I could use to help calm my skin down? Would appreciate any advice you have!

It sounds like you may be experiencing an allergic reaction or irritation from the castor oil. You can try using a hydrocortisone cream, such as Cortaid, to help reduce inflammation and itching. Apply a thin layer to the affected areas twice a day for up to a week. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please consult a doctor for further evaluation and management.

View allI've been using Klosh F and Tugain 10 along with Renocia solution, plus Fluence hair. My doctor said it's fine, and I've been on them for about two months. Do these treatments really help with androgenic alopecia? I don't have dandruff, so I'm just wondering if I'm on the right track here.

I've been dealing with this fungal infection for the past 7 months and finally got it cleared up with ringozone cream, but now I've got these blackish red spots where the infection used to be. They're really noticeable, and I'm eager to get rid of them quickly. Is there anything I can do to make these spots and marks fade faster?

I'm in my second week of taking isotretinoin at 40mg a day, and I've noticed some whiteheads popping up on my cheeks. Does isotretinoin actually help with getting rid of these, or should I be prepared for more breakouts before it gets better? Curious to know what I should expect in the coming weeks.
