Question

I'm dealing with this skin issue called tinea corporis. Do you think taking deflazacort would be a good idea? Is it safe to use for this condition?

I have a few pits on my nose around 3cm in size along with many smaller ones that seem to produce oil and a white creamy substance. Can this be treated without plastic surgery or would I need it? I'd also like to improve the shape of my nose what options do I have for that?

Question

I'm really worried about my skin. I've been using this fair cream from Zee Drugs for about a year now, and I'm noticing some issues. If I skip using it for just a day, I get these small pimple-like things near my nose and all over my forehead. The longer I don't use it, the redder and itchier they become. And when I do use the cream again, my nose becomes covered with pimples that won't go away. Can someone please help me figure out what's going on and what I should do about it?
