Is Vaseline good for face?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Vaseline is a Petroleum Jelly based moisturiser. Though a layer of vaseline helps in locking in moisture it can trigger outbreaks if you have acne prone skin.

I'm dealing with a lot of acne after getting my face threaded, and my doctor put me on Minoz OD and Avene Triacneal cream for 10 days. The thing is, my acne's actually getting worse, and the scars look more noticeable. I thought the cream would make it peel, but it's just drying it out, and I'm not seeing any peeling even after 10 days. I'm wondering how long I'm supposed to keep using this stuff before I see any results? Why am I ending up with new pimples every day? Could it be the treatment or just a coincidence? Ive never had this many pimples on my face before. What should I do? Any insights on how long it usually takes for acne to fade with these treatments?

I'm dealing with some redness on the glans of my penis and have been applying Fucibet. Is this the right treatment for my situation? If not, can you suggest something else or offer any advice?
Redness on the glans of the penis can be a sign of inflammation or infection. It is important to keep the area clean and dry. You can apply an over-the-counter antifungal cream like Clotrimazole 1% twice a day for 1-2 weeks. If the redness persists or is accompanied by other symptoms such as pain, discharge, or fever, please consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.
