Question 1

Hello doctor,can you please let me know the usage of glycolic acid 6-12%cream?can it be used on lifelong?

Accepted Answer

Glycolic acid 6-12% cream is used to treat various skin concerns like acne, fine lines, wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, and dull skin tone; it should be used under dermatological guidance, starting with lower concentrations (6%) and gradually increasing as your skin becomes more tolerant; while it can be used long-term, it's essential to follow a consistent skincare routine, use sunscreen daily, and have regular follow-ups with your dermatologist to monitor skin health and adjust the treatment plan as needed, with some studies suggesting that long-term use (over 6-12 months) can lead to sustained improvements in skin texture and appearance.

Accepted Answer

It sounds like you may be experiencing a case of scrotal dermatitis, which can be caused by various factors including sweating, irritation, or fungal infection. To help alleviate your symptoms, you can try using an antifungal cream such as Clotrimazole 1% cream twice a day on the affected area. Additionally, you can take an oral antihistamine like Cetirizine 10mg once daily to help with the itching. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry, and avoid using talcum powder as it can sometimes worsen the condition.
