Question

I've been dealing with acne and pimples on my arms and back for a few months now. A friend suggested using salicylix acid ointment, but it hasn't helped much. Any other remedies you'd recommend? I'm really looking for something effective because it's been bothering me quite a bit.

I've been dealing with this persistent itching near my bikini area for about a month now, and its gradually spreading. My skin is really dry and it's peeling, almost like it's broken. I went to a doctor who prescribed a cream called TEXIFEN, but I haven't seen any improvement. What could be causing this, and should I try a different treatment?
