Skin thinning problem

2025-12-20 06:52:22
I am using a steroid based cream (medisalic) I have been having this for a very long time, almost more than 2 years, and now I am having a lot of problems with my face. As soon as I go into a stupor, my face becomes completely black and I am also getting small blemishes.And some pimples are also appearing due to this there are some spots on the face.
