Which face wash is best for pimples?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
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.

View allI've had this small, hard lump near my groin on the left leg for the past 34 days and I'm getting a bit worried. It seemed like it might've been a hair follicle issue at first, but those usually clear up in a day or two, and this one's just sticking around. Recently, I had a fever and went to the doctor who gave me some red liquid and pills, probably antibiotics, but I'm not sure if they're related to the lump or something else. Im generally pretty healthy with no other medical issues, so I'm not sure what this could mean. Should I see a dermatologist or a urologist about this? Any advice would be really appreciated.

I'm really concerned about whether Candid cream is steroidal or not. Is it safe to use this for treating candidiasis? I want to make sure I'm not using something that's too strong or might cause side effects. Would love some guidance on this!
Candid cream contains Clotrimazole, which is an antifungal medication used to treat fungal infections like candidiasis. It is not a steroid cream. You can apply Candid cream topically to the affected area 2-3 times a day for effective treatment of candidiasis.

I've had a sebaceous cyst on my scrotum for about 3 years now and really want to avoid surgery. Are there any other ways to treat it or make it go away naturally?
Occasionally, small scrotal sebaceous cysts may go away on their own. The use of a warm compress a couple of times a day can help reduce the size of the cyst or swelling by encouraging the cyst to drain or reabsorb into the body. However, larger cysts are unlikely to go away without surgical treatment.
