Question

I'm noticing my skin is getting darker every day, and now there's this small white patch at the corner of my eye. I'm a college student, and I'm in the sun for around 3-4 hours daily, so I think that's why my skin's darkening. Plus, I've got dark circles around my eyes and dark patches near my mouth. My T-zone seems darker too. Can you tell me what's happening and what I should do about it?

Question

I've been dealing with seborrheic dermatitis for a while now, and I'm getting really frustrated. A year ago, my doctor suggested azithromycin, and it worked initially, but the condition came back after a week. I tried azithromycin again for another five days, but it didn't help at all this time. So, I saw another doctor who recommended doxycycline with vitamin C for a week. It seemed to get better, but then it flared up again just two days after I finished the meds. It's been really annoying trying these antibiotics without long-term relief. What do you think I should do next? Could there be something else going on?

Question

I've been using a clindamycin gel and isotretinoin tablet for my acne and scars for about 12 days now, but my skin seems to be getting oilier and I'm not seeing much improvement. In fact, I feel like my acne is more noticeable. Do you think I should stop using them, or is this normal and I should give it more time?

Question

I'm dealing with chickenpox and the scabs have dried, but they haven't started falling off yet. I scratched a few of the blisters earlier and I'm really worried they'll turn into scars. Should I wait until I'm fully recovered to see a dermatologist, or do you think I should make an appointment sooner to prevent any marks?
