Should I Continue Cefoclox XL for Boil?

I have been taking Cefoclox XL twice a day for the last 7 days for a boil on my back. The boil has almost disappeared, but not completely. Should I continue taking Cefoclox?

1 Answer

Answered on 15th Aug '24

It's good to hear that the boil has almost disappeared, but since it's not completely gone, it's important to consult a doctor before continuing the medication. Visit a dermatologist, as they can assess your condition and advise whether you need to continue Cefoclox or consider other treatments.

I am 20 years old female and have moles and scars on face so I request you to suggest best treatment for removal moles and scars and my face's skin is sensitive and oily.

Female | 20

There are a few treatments available to help remove moles and scars on the face. The best treatment for you will depend on the severity of your moles and scars.
 

For milder cases of moles and scars, over-the-counter topical creams and ointments can be used. These products typically contain retinol, collagen, hyaluronic acid, and other ingredients that help to reduce the appearance of moles and scars.
 

For more severe cases, you may need to consider laser treatments or chemical peels. Laser treatments help to remove moles and scars by targeting and destroying the cells that cause them. Chemical peels help to remove scars and moles by removing the outer layers of skin, causing the skin to heal with a smoother, more even appearance.
 

It is important to note that these treatments require a professional to administer them, so be sure to consult with a dermatologist to determine the best treatment for your skin. Additionally, it is important to note that these treatments may cause redness, swelling, and even scarring, so it is important to be aware of the potential risks before proceeding.

I have a lot of dark moles like structures on my face and skin, will I be able to remove it permanently. If yes, kindly let me know the method and cost. Thank you :)

Common procedures are laser therapy, excision or cryotherapy depending on the type and size of moles. Based on the methods chosen, number of moles or location can vary dramatically in costs. It is essential to seek advice from a dermatologist or any skincare specialist who could analyze your situation, suggest appropriate options and give an idea of the possible costs. The removal procedure should be carried out by a licensed practitioner to ensure safety and reduce the degree of scarring.

why is my top lip red numb and swollen but its not an allergic reaction

Female | 21

redness, numbness and top lip swelling can be caused by different things like injuries or inflammations. You need to consult a dermatologist to understand the actual source of this condition, as well as obtain appropriate treatment. Self-diagnosis and medical treatment may aggravate the situation and cause complications.

Skin cause I have white spots like watery in hands and legs what's this

Female | 20

White spots on your skin resembling watery on your hands and legs may be a condition known as eczema. Eczema can cause your skin to become dry, itchy, and red. It takes place when the epidermis barrier is damaged. You could help with eczema by keeping the skin moisturized with mild creams or ointments. Scratching the infected areas driving the course of the disease to a secondary infection.

I have dark tan black on my neck

Male | 30

When your crook finger is deep, we call that acanthosis nigricans. It only appears in thick, dark aluminum and is always misdiagnosed as skin abnormalities. Weight and diabetes are the main accused ones. Sometimes, it can also relate to hormonal problems. The proper approach is to eat healthy and manage your weight.

I am suffering from ringworm from last 4 months I have used so many creame but not use, can please suggest powerful treatment for ringworm for short duration

Male | 18

Ringworm is persiste­nt and tough to treat. It is a fungal infection causing circular, red, itchy patche­s on the skin. This fungus thrives in warm, damp environme­nts. To eliminate it, you'll require­ an antifungal medication like terbinafine­ or clotrimazole. Keep the­ affected area cle­an and dry. Consistent use of the me­dication for two weeks should help re­solve it.

Female | 21

Hi Muskan... Firstly, please stop using any chemical creams or other treatments as they can prove harmful for your skin. Instead, try going for moisturizers to keep your skin hydrated and use natural ingredients like honey, turmeric etc. to lighten your skin. I also advise you to apply sunscreen when going out. Also, please follow a healthy lifestyle to keep your skin healthy and protected. I hope this answer proved helpful.
