Is Skinlite cream really effective for treating acne and dark spots? Also, could you let me know if it has any side effects? I'm curious if it also helps in getting a fairer complexion.

I'm wondering about having sex with my wife since I have HSV-2, which causes genital herpes. I really don't want her to get infected, so what would you recommend we do?

It is important to take precautions to prevent the transmission of HSV-2 to your wife. You can discuss with your doctor about starting antiviral medication such as Valacyclovir (Valtrex) to reduce the risk of transmission. It is also recommended to use condoms consistently and to avoid sexual activity during outbreaks or if you have any symptoms. Additionally, maintaining good personal hygiene and communication with your partner about your condition are important steps to protect your wife from infection.

I'm noticing that whenever I eat foods that are considered "heaty," like spicy or fried items, I end up getting pimples on my face. It's really frustrating. Do you have any advice on how I can avoid this or clear up my skin when it happens? Is there something specific in these foods that's causing the breakouts?

Clinsol gel for local application is advised for 3-6 weeks.
