I hope it works for me, but I'm a bit nervous. Any tips or words of encouragement would be greatly appreciated!

I've been using Keralyt 3% Gel for about a month now, and I'm curious to hear from others who have tried it. The gel contains salicylic acid, which helps to soften and loosen thick, scaly skin, making it useful for conditions like psoriasis and seborrheic dermatitis. The application is relatively straightforward, but I've experienced some mild side effects like dry skin and a bit of burning. Has anyone else had similar experiences? Specifically, I want to know if the side effects subside over time and if the gel is worth the mild discomfort. It can be a bit tough to deal with, and I'm wondering if it's worth it, especially considering the potential for more severe side effects. The list seems a bit daunting at first, but I assume most people don't experience these reactions. Has anyone had a more serious reaction, or is it really rare? I'd love some insights to know what to expect if anyone has any experiences to share.
