View allI'm wondering if I can use tretinoin every night and then salicylic acid in the morning to help with pimples, scars, and maybe even for anti-aging benefits. Is this a good routine, or should I be concerned about any potential issues with this combination?
No.. treatment depends on the grade...Acne or pimples... Due to hormonal changes..Oily skin causes it...Common in adolescent age...May occur in adults also.. Food like Oily foods, ice cream, chocolate and sweets increase it.. Treatment depends on the grade of pimples or acne

I've noticed a couple of small black spots on my scrotum that are about the size of a pimple. I'm really worried because I don't know what these could be. It's a bit embarrassing to talk about, but I recently shaved down there and it even bled from one of the spots. It healed but then the spot formed again. Can you help me understand what's going on?
Possible Causes* 1. *Ingrown hairs*: Shaving can cause hairs to become trapped, leading to inflammation, bleeding, and scarring. 2. *Folliculitis*: An infection of the hair follicles, which can cause redness, swelling, and pus-filled bumps. 3. *Seborrheic keratoses*: Benign growths that can appear as small, dark spots. 4. *Melanotic macules*: Small, benign areas of pigmentation.

I was admitted to the hospital for a bedsore about 10 days ago and was given antibiotics. The heel is healing slowly but some parts still don't seem fully healed. The doctors initially mentioned plastic surgery but later said it should get better on its own. Should I keep taking the antibiotics or switch to betadine ointment now? The wound looks better but not completely closed.
Kindly consult plastic surgeon Sacral bed sore It will take time to heal May require surgery antibiotic and regular dressings Kindly keep the area clean Use air mattress Keep changing the posture of patient
