I've noticed tiny black specks or dots on my skin over the last three weeks, even after I wipe. They're really small but keep appearing. Should I be worried about this?

I recently got bitten by an insect they call the Nairobi fly, and now there's this blister on my skin that's turned into scabby scales. Does the whole blistering thing and scabbiness mean it's healing, or should I be worried about it? Also, after seeing my doctor, they mentioned something about an injection. Do you think this will help with the healing process, or is there something else I should be doing?

Nairobi flies don't bite, but their body releases a toxin when in contact with the skin. Secondary infection by scratching is to be avoided. See a skin specialist if needed.

I've been noticing some pores on my face lately and it's really bothering me. I've heard about kromaglo cream and I'm wondering if it actually helps with reducing or removing these pores? Or is there perhaps another cream that's better for closing up facial pores? Any advice would be appreciated!
