Face wash with either salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide may help in removing dead skin cells which clogs the pores leading to acne. Either of them may help only in mild grade of acne. You can choose face wash with salicylic acid if you have blackheads, whiteheads and comedones and face wash with benzoyl peroxide if you have pus filled pimples.

I've been dealing with a fever and frequent mouth ulcers. I'm currently using Dentogel and some homeopathic medicine, but I'm not seeing any improvement. What could be going wrong? Could you suggest any other treatments or tips? I'm really concerned about why I havent recovered yet.

Possible Causes:_ 1. Air trapping: Air enters the mucus, forming bubbles. 2. Mucus thickness: Thick mucus can trap air, creating bubbles. 3. Respiratory infections: Viral or bacterial infections can cause abnormal mucus production. 4. Allergies: Allergic reactions can lead to excess mucus and bubbles. 5. Sinusitis: Inflammation of sinuses can cause bubbly mucus. Diagnostic Tests:_ 1. Chest X-ray 2. CT scan 3. Pulmonary function tests (PFTs) 4. Blood tests (infection, inflammation)

I've noticed a bunch of tiny black dots on my lower stomach and thighs. They don't hurt or anything, but I'm just wondering what they might be? Should I be concerned, or are they nothing to worry about?

That could be fungal infection which needs both oral and topical antifungal medications and personal hygiene is more important for such condition.
