Well,it’s for beginners,those who are new on tretinoins they may get thr skin excessively dry and ofcourse peeling of skin occurs,so for that to make skin well moisturised,you can apply after cleansing your face cerave moisturiser on face then let it aborb into skin thn apply tretinoin and on top of tretinoin you can again apply cerave to prevent from dryness,this is called sanwich technique for the beginners.

Kindly protect yourself from direct sunlight,stay well hydrated,use gentle face products while on isotretinoin,and whenever your dermatologist will advise you to use topical isotretinoin thn must follow that technique.

Back pain could be due to other reasons,like if you are active in sports,gym exercises,or sitting for long,standing many other reasons…
