I've been using this salicylic acid face wash called Speelac, as my doctor suggested, but after just two days of using it twice daily, my skin's feeling super dry and hurts a lot. It's like I can feel my skin burning when I put on any ointments. Is this something normal or should I be worried? I've also been using Acnemoist and Derivative CMS gel. Would appreciate any insights on this!

You may be experiencing an adverse reaction to the salicylic acid face wash. The dryness, pain, and burning sensation you are feeling are not normal and may indicate that the product is too harsh for your skin. I recommend stopping the use of the Speelac face wash and consult your doctor or dermatologist for further evaluation. In the meantime, you can use a gentle moisturizer like Cetaphil or Aveeno to help soothe your skin.

I've been experiencing a lot of pain right at the top of my butt crack, not the anus but the upper part of the butt. It's really painful when I sit down, although there's no lumps or sores that I can feel or see. I'm unsure what's causing this, but it's pretty uncomfortable. Any idea what might be going on or how I can ease the pain?

You may be experiencing pain in the area known as the sacrum or coccyx. This type of pain can be caused by various reasons such as muscle strain, injury, or even inflammation. To help relieve the pain and discomfort, you can try taking over-the-counter pain relievers such as ibuprofen (Advil) or acetaminophen (Tylenol) as directed on the package. Additionally, applying a warm compress to the area may also help alleviate the pain. If the pain persists or worsens, it is advisable to consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.
