I've just gone through 9 sessions of laser therapy for my skin, and now I'm wondering if it's okay to use benzoyl peroxide on my face afterward. Are there any specific things I need to be cautious about after the laser treatment? Also, I've got a wedding coming up, and I'm thinking about getting a cosmetic facial about 15 days after the laser resurfacing. Do you think it'll be safe to do that?

I'm dealing with some serious itching in my butt crack, and it's driving me crazy. Living in Mumbai, the humidity makes me sweat a lot, especially down there. I also have thick body hair, which doesnt help. Even touching it lightly causes a painful burning feeling. Any advice on what could help?

I recommend using an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole (brand name Canesten) twice a day in the affected area. Keep the area clean and dry, and wear loose cotton underwear to allow for better air circulation. Additionally, you can take an oral antihistamine like Cetirizine (brand name Zyrtec) to help with the itching. If the symptoms persist, consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and management.

I've been using Faiza cream for about six months, but after I stopped, my face broke out with pimples and acne, and it's gotten way oilier. I'm really worried about this. How can I recover from these issues and work towards getting fairer skin? Can you please help me?

To help with the pimples, acne, and oily skin, you can try using a gentle cleanser containing salicylic acid to unclog pores and reduce oiliness. Additionally, a topical retinoid cream like Retin-A can help with acne and promote skin cell turnover. To lighten your skin, you can consider using a cream containing hydroquinone or kojic acid, but make sure to use it under the guidance of a healthcare professional. Remember to always use sunscreen during the day to protect your skin.

I've been dealing with pimples that were starting to heal, but it's been really slow. They began to dry up, so I tried applying some moisturizer and rubbed it a bit, thinking it would help. But now it's worse because I rubbed too hard, and my skin started oozing this watery liquid. By the next morning, it developed pus. I went to see a doctor, and they recommended I use T BACT cream. Do you think that'll actually help? I'm kind of worried about what to do next.

Refrain from rubbing or picking at the area to avoid further irritation or damage. Let the skin heal naturally.After the cream has been absorbed, you can apply a gentle, non-comedogenic moisturizer to keep the skin hydrated. This will help prevent further dryness and irritation.T-Bact (Mupirocin) should help treat the infection and promote healing. It's essential to use it as directed by your doctor and avoid further irritation or picking at the skin. If the situation does not improve or worsens, seek follow-up care from your doctor.
