Question

I've been dealing with these white spots for around 10 years, and it's becoming a real concern for me. I'm really curious about what they might be and would love some advice on how to possibly get rid of them. Could you help me understand what these might be and suggest any treatments or remedies?

White spots on the skin can be caused by various conditions such as vitiligo or fungal infections. Treatment options may include topical corticosteroids like Clobetasol propionate cream to help reduce inflammation and repigment the skin. Another option is phototherapy using UV light to stimulate melanin production. It is important to consult a dermatologist for proper evaluation and management.

Question

I've been dealing with this antifungal issue for a couple of years now. Every time I use the medication prescribed by my doctor, it seems to help only temporarily, and then once I stop, the antifungal comes back. It's causing severe itching that's really uncomfortable. I'm just trying to figure out how I can get rid of this for good. Any advice would be really appreciated!

Question

I've been dealing with white, dry patches around my groin area, including on the scrotum and penis. I was diagnosed with a fungal infection a few months ago and took medication which cleared up the infection, but the dryness and skin flaking haven't gone away. Any ideas on what might be causing this or how I can treat it? I'm kind of worried about it.
