I've been using this Demelan cream that my dermatologist suggested, but I'm experiencing some itching and a bit of redness where I applied it. It's only been two days. Should I take a break and then continue, or just stop using it altogether?

It seems like you may be experiencing an allergic reaction to the demelan cream. It is advisable to discontinue the cream and consult your dermatologist for an alternative treatment. In the meantime, you can apply a mild corticosteroid cream like Hydrocortisone 1% cream on the affected areas twice a day to help with the itching and redness.
