I'm really worried and could use some guidance. I've been using melas cream for the past couple of months, but instead of improving, I noticed a lot of dark spots spreading across my face. It's becoming quite concerning for me. Could you please advise on what steps I should take to tackle this issue and hopefully clear up my skin?

I'm really struggling with acne right now and I'm curious about what actually causes it and how I can treat it. Also, I've heard mixed things about whether masturbation can cause acne and would love some clarity on that. Can you help me understand this better?

Acne is caused by a combination of factors including excess oil production, clogged hair follicles, bacteria, and inflammation. To treat acne, you can use topical treatments containing benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid. In more severe cases, oral medications like isotretinoin may be prescribed. It is important to maintain a good skincare routine and avoid picking or squeezing acne lesions. There is no scientific evidence to suggest that masturbation causes acne.
