Its not been 2 weeks and side effects start to flare up.
Firsly, its the acne on my phase its escalated and I used tretinoin hoping it will clear up, it did clear up but my face started to peel really badly.
Secondly, my chest suddenly had a profileration of bumpy pores, and I have no idea whether its acne or heat rash. Pray hard that it is heat rash so it will go away soon but it has been a full week the rash is still there. I went to PURE fitness last week and used their dry fit attire and their sauna room for 15min daily and I'm thinking that might have caused the heat rash to appear. What might be worse is if its fungal acne then it will not go away on its own. The rash area is so itchy I kept scratching it and went to apply tretinoin on my chest area too which kinda made it worse.
Thirdly, my lower back has been taking a toll from squats. Now I cannot even squat any longer because for three consecutive mondays on squats legs day, I got a sudden onset of sharp pain on one of the last few reps while squatting 100kg (which is my normal weight). This week upon trying to squat again, the pain hit on the 6th rep and I knew I will not be squatting for some time. Laying on bed, sitting on sofa, walking around all makes me feel the pain in that area on my lower back. I hope its not a herniated disc and just a mild sprain.
