I stepped in a hole in my backyard and my ankle went sideways. There's been sharp pains going through my ankle up my leg, especially at night.

I have been struggling with acne for the past 12 years, particularly on my cheeks. I have tried various treatments including Tarana (a birth control medication), skin care products, and Russian Peel sessions. My doctor recently prescribed Retin A Tretinoin 0.025%, but I haven't started using it yet. Can I use CeraVe SA cleanser before applying Retin A, and should I avoid using a moisturizer with it? How long does it usually take for Retin A to show results, and does it help with acne scarring, particularly pitted scars?
