I'm wondering if I should keep taking the POPSON INTAS tablets that my doctor recommended. I'm supposed to have one in the morning and one at night, but when I took it just once at night, I ended up with body pain, especially in my hands, legs, and joints, and I felt really dizzy. I stopped taking it for now because I wasn't feeling well. Should I continue with this medication despite these side effects?

I've been using multani mitti and apple cider vinegar on my face to try and clear up some acne, but now I'm dealing with some skin burn, a lot of redness, and even a little bit of peeling. What should I do about this? Is there a way to soothe my skin or should I be worried?

To treat the skin burn, redness, and peeling, you can use a mild corticosteroid cream like Hydrocortisone cream along with a gentle moisturizer like Cetaphil. Apply the Hydrocortisone cream twice a day on the affected areas and follow it up with the moisturizer. Additionally, you can take an oral antihistamine like Cetirizine to reduce any itching or inflammation. Make sure to avoid further use of multani mitti and apple cider vinegar on your face.

I'm having some trouble with my skin, specifically because of frozen chicken. Back in my home country, I never had any issues with eating chicken, but here, whenever I eat the frozen chicken, I get these acne breakouts on my face. They're painful and usually leave these black marks after they heal. I've noticed that when I eat fresh chicken from the market, my skin seems fine. I can try to avoid the frozen chicken, but I'm worried because there are still some face bumps that have been around for days, and I also have some old black scars. What can I do about these leftover marks and bumps?
