What are face bleach side effects
I've been using bleach to get rid of dark spots and skin tan from years. I'm 40 years old and use bleach once in every two months. This give me a glowing and lightened skin. From past few days I've been noticing some kinds of swelling on my skin. Is this a side effect of face bleach? I'm afraid as I've also heard that bleach can also cause skin cancer. Help me with a solution.

Please get yourself checked with a dermatologist near you. It's better to know what it is for sure. Rather than online, please go and have a direct consult which will let the doctor to take a look at your skin and advise accordingly.
