Question 1

I'm feeling a bit unsure about how to properly use the Clindac A gel and Dervia CMS gel that my doctor recommended. Could you give me some guidance on the right way to apply them, like the order or if there's a specific routine to follow? I'm just worried about not using them correctly and want to make sure I get the best results. What's the best approach here?

Accepted Answer

To use Clindac A gel, you should first wash the affected area with a mild cleanser and pat it dry. Then, apply a thin layer of the gel to the affected skin once or twice daily, as directed by your doctor. Make sure to avoid contact with eyes, mouth, and other mucous membranes. For Dervia CMS gel, you should also clean the affected area before application. Apply a small amount of the gel to the affected skin once daily, preferably in the evening. Gently massage it into the skin until it is absorbed. Both gels are for external use only.

Question 2

I've been dealing with these rashes on my inner thighs for the last few days, and I thought it might be from vaginal discharge. But now it's gotten worse, and the itchiness has spread to my private parts. It's really uncomfortable and sore. Im not having any trouble when I pee, and there's no smell with the discharge. What should I do about this?

Accepted Answer

It sounds like you may have a yeast infection. You can try using over-the-counter antifungal medication like Clotrimazole cream. Apply a thin layer of the cream to the affected area twice a day for 7-10 days. Additionally, keeping the area clean and dry, wearing loose cotton underwear, and avoiding tight clothing can help alleviate symptoms. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it is important to consult with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

Question 3

My skin's really oily and acne-prone, plus its super sensitive. I'm trying to figure out which Cetaphil cleanser would be best suited for me. Should I go with the Cetaphil OS Oily Skin Cleanser or should I opt for the Cetaphil Gentle Cleanser? I'm kind of worried about making things worse with the wrong choice. Any advice?

Accepted Answer

Start with gentle cleanser and check if it suits you,later switch to oil based cleanser

I've noticed this small yellow patch on my left arm for a few days now. Could it be related to my liver or something? I'm not experiencing any other symptoms, just this patch, and I've included a picture of it. What do you think it might be?
