I am suffering from scalp folliculitis since 2017, I got many treatments but as long as I take antibiotics I remain fine and as soon as I stop taking antibiotics, yellow and red pimples appear on the scalp again. Is it possible to cure it?

I am 26 year old. I have small pimples and dark spot on my face currently I am using glyceric acid cream 6% on alternative days. Can I use clindamycin gel?

U can use clindamycin gel on pimples but it will not help you for dark spots! for that you need azelaic acid 10 percent cream to be applied at night time only.

Hi. Stop using this cream immediately. It is a steroid which can lead to many side effects. Apply cetaphil moisturising cream twice daily. If still there is problem consult a dermatologist.

Asked for Female, 0 years old from Chennai

Hi doctor. My name is jeena and im 27 years old. I have been suffering with acne for more than 10 years and I have severe marks on my face. I get a lot of black and white heads on my face.
