View allI've been using clindamycin phosphate gel for a couple of weeks, and it seemed to be working because my skin was clearing up. I decided to stop the medication, but now I'm suddenly getting small acne spots all over my face. Could this be an allergic reaction or something else? What should I do?

I got the chickenpox virus back in 2016, and since then, I've been using Dermadew Lite soap. I'm kind of worried about whether it's okay to use it every day. I'm just curious if using it regularly is safe or if there are any side effects I should know about. It only seems to be available at pharmacies, so it feels like a medicated soap. Could you give me some advice on whether I should keep using it or not?
See a specialist for accurate diagnosis and targeted treatment.

I've noticed these dark spots on my lower back near my spinal cord that started appearing over a month ago. They don't hurt or itch, but they seem to be spreading, and it's starting to make me a bit concerned. Should I be worried or get this checked out? Any idea what might be causing this?
Could be a condition called Tinea Versicolor. This is a fungal infection of the skin that can cause discolored patches. I recommend using an antifungal medication such as Clotrimazole cream applied twice daily for 2-4 weeks. Additionally, you can use a medicated shampoo containing selenium sulfide to wash the affected area. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry to prevent further spread of the infection.
