Firstly, it's important to recognize that skin reactions to treatments can vary significantly among individuals. Persol forte cream, which contains benzoyl peroxide, is commonly used for acne treatment due to its antibacterial properties.

Cancer staging needs to do first. Different treatments / approaches are available for different stages. Psa will stop increasing only if we are able to treat the cancer or stop the cancer growth. Zoledronic acid & bicalutamide have limited role. Pet scans. Other reports & most imp patient s clinical condition will decide further treatment.

Your symptoms suggest as if you are allergic to the wax used. Also do you have anxiety too? You can try rica wax if you have not tried it yet, it's a little expensive but better than the regular honey wax. Take care.

Demelan cream is prescribed in certain disorders of hyperpigmentation. It may not benefit in all cases and one may experience side effects like photosensitivity/redness etc. Hence it is advisable to consult a dermatologist and figure out what will suit you best for your skin condition.
