Had some antibiotic shots on my back about 78 days ago, and now they're starting to hurt a bit. Any idea what might be causing this?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
The lingering pain at the injection site 7-8 days after antibiotic injections on your back could be due to inflammation, muscle irritation, or a localized reaction to the antibiotic, which can cause delayed-onset pain.

View allI'm noticing this really dark black layer that keeps forming on just my nose and chin. It's only happening in those areas and it's starting to worry me. What could be causing this, and should I be concerned?
Be gentle with your skin. Avoid aggressive scrubbing or using products that could irritate it further. Maintain a consistent skincare routine and be patient, as fading dark spots can take time (usually a few weeks to a couple of months). Stay hydrated and maintain a balanced diet rich in antioxidants to support overall skin health. If the problem persists or if you suspect an underlying skin condition, a dermatologist can provide targeted treatments like chemical peels, laser therapy, or prescription-strength creams to address the issue.

I'm curious about switching products for better skin fairness. I've been using Roop Mantra Ayurvedic cream for a couple of months, but I haven't seen much improvement. I recently heard about Kojiglo gel and I'm considering trying it out. Could you let me know if it's safe for my skin?
Kojiglo gel contains Kojic acid which is often used to lighten skin. It can be safe for skin lightening purposes, but it's important to use it under the guidance of a healthcare professional. You can apply a thin layer of Kojiglo gel on the affected areas once daily at night. Remember to use sunscreen during the day as Kojic acid can increase sensitivity to sunlight.
