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 got these yellow nails that are really painful, and I'm not sure who I should see about it. My fingernails are turning yellow, and it's worrying me. Any idea which doctor is best to consult for something like this?

Yellow nails can be a sign of a fungal infection or other underlying health issues. You can start by using an over-the-counter antifungal nail cream like Lamisil cream twice a day on the affected nails. Additionally, you can take oral antifungal medication like Terbinafine. Make sure to keep your nails clean and dry, and avoid wearing nail polish until the condition improves. If the symptoms persist or worsen, you should consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and treatment.
