Question 1

I'm dealing with a lot of pimples and acne lately, and I've been using Bbact ointment and aquaminol lotion to help. But today, while washing my face, one of my pimples got irritated, started bleeding, and now there's a blood clot. I'm worried about what I should do next. Any advice?

Accepted Answer

It's essential to address the bleeding pimple and blood clot properly to promote healing and prevent infection.

Assessing the situation:

1. Bleeding pimple: The bleeding could be due to the pimple being scratched, popped, or irritated during washing.
2. Blood clot: The blood clot has formed to protect the wound and promote healing.

Immediate steps:

1. Stop using B-bact ointment and aquaminol lotion for now: Avoid applying any topical treatments to the affected area until it's healed.
2. Clean the area gently: Wash the area with lukewarm water and a mild, fragrance-free soap. Pat dry with a clean towel.
3. Apply a cold compress: A cold compress or an ice pack wrapped in a cloth can help reduce swelling and ease pain.
4. Avoid picking or scratching: Resist the temptation to pick or scratch the blood clot, as this can lead to infection, scarring, or prolonged healing.

Promoting healing:

1. Keep the area moisturized: Apply a gentle, non-comedogenic moisturizer to the affected area to promote healing and prevent dryness.
2. Use a topical antibiotic ointment (if prescribed): If your doctor prescribes a topical antibiotic ointment, apply it as directed to help prevent infection.

Question 2

I'm trying to figure out which soap is better for my skin, Dermadew or Kojic, because my doctor recommended Dermadew along with Melaglow cream. I'm just wondering if I should stick with that advice or consider other options. Can you help?

Accepted Answer

Dermadew soap is generally considered better than Kojic soap due to its gentler and non-comedogenic properties, which suit most skin types, whereas Kojic soap can be harsh and drying; pairing Dermadew soap with Melaglow cream, which contains kojic acid, vitamin E, and glycerin, can help in skin brightening, hyperpigmentation reduction, and moisturizing, making it a suitable combination for skin tone evening and glow enhancement.

Question 3

I've been dealing with a skin issue and tried using candid b lotion and absorb powder. I even took zimig tablets, but nothing seems to be helping. The problem just keeps getting worse and spreading more. I'm really worried about how to get this treated effectively. Any advice?

Accepted Answer

As Candid B lotion, absorb powder, and Zimig tablets haven't been effective, consult a dermatologist for further guidance, as the spreading fungal infection may require prescription

I've been noticing something that feels like veins on the bottom of my right testicle, and I'm wondering if it could just be the epididymis I'm feeling. Should I be concerned or is this something normal?
