Hi Prashant,

Ecopsrin-75 is a salicylic acid salt but not the kind which helps with acne. Do not apply it on the skin. There are various 2% Salicylic acid face washes available in the market and you would be much better off trying one of those for your acne.

Please note that the information I have provided is for general purposes only and does not establish a patient-doctor relationships. No prescription cream or tablet should be taken without consulting a doctor in person.

I am suffering from varicocele since 4 years.It aggravated initially in my opinion due to weight lifting.After taking medicines it never went away and i had a surgery after 2 years.the pain was not entirely gone but started aggravating in 2 months post surgery.Since then i have tried homeopathy and i have tried changing my food habits by reducing my non veg drastically but of no avail.I am really sick of this pain.It aggravates after i exercise, after urination and bowel movements, and it pains in the morning after i get up.I want some ayurveda treatment for this condition.

Doctor's Answer

Hi, I think you should get it checked with a surgeon if the surgery was successful and if you have not developed any complication or may be some other problem may be in the same or other testis then there should be no pain due the same varicocele. Otherwise also varicocele is an emergency and should be consulted immediately and you should not waste time to consult a general surgeon. I am not sure over ayurvedic drugs and can prescribe you only allopathic treatment. Avoid doing heavy excercise. ...

I am 38 years of age and never had any issues with acne growing up. At age 35 I started experiencing a lot of acne on the lower cheek and chin, pustular type acne under the skin that would last for a weeks. What could be causing this at my age?

Doctor's Answer

Hello, That would depend on whether you're a man or woman. For women hormonal changes are common the mid-thirties and this is amongst the commonest triggers for acne. There is also another type of acne called 'Adult Onset Acne' and this is seen in both men and women. This has no well defined cause but recent location change to a more polluted city, make-up use, comedogenic personal care products, dietary factors and oral medications can all be responsible. Please note that the information I ha ...

After hormonal testing this kind of acne is often best managed with oral contraceptive or anti-androgen pills.
