Accepted Answer

No need to worry you can use it as advised by your doctor for pigmentation,there is no such record stating it's potential in weight gain.

Question 2

Event after shower and moisturizing, I wake up to itching in my feet and palm of hands almost every night. What can be a reason?

Accepted Answer

Itching in the feet and palms of the hands, especially at night, can be due to a condition called eczema. I recommend using a topical corticosteroid cream like Hydrocortisone 1% cream on the affected areas before bedtime. Additionally, taking an oral antihistamine like Cetirizine 10mg at night can help alleviate the itching. Make sure to continue moisturizing regularly and avoid any potential triggers that may worsen the itching.

Question 3

Sudden Acne after applying fudic cream on face which was prescribed to me for skin allergy related to hair follicle on face. It might be due to the new vlcc facial kit I used or because of this fudic cream

Accepted Answer

Sudden acne can be frustrating, especially when you're trying to address another skin concern.

Possible Causes of Acne

1. Fudic cream: As you mentioned, the cream itself could be causing acne, especially if you're sensitive to any of its ingredients.
2. VLCC facial kit: New skincare products can cause acne, especially if they contain comedogenic ingredients that clog pores.
3. Skin purging: When introducing new skincare products, your skin may go through a "purge" phase, where it pushes out underlying impurities, leading to temporary acne.
4. Hair follicle allergy: The underlying skin allergy related to hair follicles could be contributing to the acne.

Recommended Next Steps

1. Stop using the VLCC facial kit: Discontinue use to see if the acne improves.
