yes you have to stop using the soap and ask your doctor to advise alternate soap or add moisturizer for your treatment.

Question

I'm wondering if I should use Tyrodin cream for these red marks I have on my face. I'm worried it'll dry out my skin even more since it's already a bit dry. Do you think this cream is a good idea? Also, I'm looking for a moisturizer that can really hydrate my skin and give it a nice glow. Any recommendations? The Tyrodin I am considering has tranexamic acid and kojic acid in it.

Question

I've got these white patches on my knees and elbows, and even after three months of medical treatment, they seem to be spreading. I'm using Tab.vitibex twice a day and applying melgain lotion twice daily too. My diet includes sour and spicy foods. I'm really worried and not sure what to do next. Could it be something I'm missing, or should I be adjusting my treatment or diet somehow? Any advice would be really appreciated!

Question

I've noticed this spot that appeared when I was 8 years old, and it started to spread on my right elbow. It's got me a bit concerned because I'm not sure if it's something I should be worried about or if it needs treatment. What could this be, and should I think about getting it checked out by a professional?
