View allI've been dealing with this moderate acne issue for a while now because of my PCOS. I'm taking OCs and everything seemed to be under control, but now it's flaring up again. My doctor put me on Isotretinoin 10mg daily for a month and also suggested I use topical tretinoin 0.025mg once a day. Is it okay to use these two treatments together or should I be cautious about using them at the same time?
Yes you can use it no problem,follow your doctors advice

I've got these dark spots on my knuckles, joints, and fingers, both on my hands and legs, even on the palm area. I'm wondering what could be causing this and how I might be able to treat it. I've also got a history of Ankylosing Spondylitis. Could this be connected somehow? What steps can I take to lighten or get rid of these dark spots?
The dark spots on your fingers knuckles and joints could be due to a condition called hyperpigmentation, which can be common in individuals with Ankylosing Spondylitis. To help lighten these dark spots, you can try using a topical cream containing hydroquinone or kojic acid. Apply a thin layer of the cream on the affected areas twice daily. Additionally, using a sunscreen with a high SPF on your hands and fingers can help prevent further darkening of the spots. If the dark spots persist or worsen, it is recommended to consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and management.
