I'm curious about what happens when you eat milk and milk products along with fish. Can this combo cause skin issues or any other health problems?

Eating milk or milk products with fish is generally safe and does not cause skin diseases or major health issues. The idea of such a combination causing problems is a myth, but if you have specific allergies or sensitivities, it could lead to mild digestive discomfort.

I'm dealing with an infected sebaceous cyst, and I've noticed it's about the size of a 20p coin. I've been using Bactroban for about 5 days now, and I'm seeing slow progress, if any, with it. Before I knew what it was, I was using sea salt, and it seemed to work a bit better. I'm wondering if it's okay to use both the Bactroban and sea salt at the same time. I think the salt helps dry it out, but I'm concerned it might interfere with how the Bactroban works. What do you think?
