Friends of mine would know that I have long-term skin problems. Since my start of my secondary school, I was troubled by my itchy skin that I could not resist myself from scratching some parts of my body, particularly the back. As a result, I got some instant relief, but in the long run, those parts have been pigmented because of inflammation. But when I realized it as a complication of my bad habit, it was already too late.
I had consulted a famous doctor at Mong Kok for the problem. From him I received a topical cream, which was supposed to be the secret formula from the doctor that could clean up the pigments. But then it was costly. And even worse, I found it ineffective. Soon I ceased to find that doctor, leaving my skin problems untreated.
Another reason was that I reckoned that famous doctor was actually not a dermatologist.
It was until a caring nurse in the OPD that told me to take care of the skin problem, the skin problem was not on my mind. This time I opted to find a government specialist of skin. It took me one year to make a consultation in a Tuen Mun skin clinic, which was also known as social hygiene clinic.
Don't get me wrong, it also took care of clean people like me.
