View allI've been dealing with this problem for the past two years. Every time I take medication, it disappears, but after a few months, it's back again. I've been on meds for 2 to 3 months regularly, and it's frustrating because not only has my weight increased, but the issue still isn't going away completely. It's getting worse now, as the fungal infection is spreading to my private parts. I'm using sapat lotion and cream, which gives me some temporary relief, but I really want to get rid of it for good. What do you suggest I do to solve this from the root?

I've been dealing with a pigmentation issue and visited a dermatologist for help. They suggested I use Melapik Ever cream on my face at night. But when I woke up, my face felt itchy and had a burning sensation. After using it for a couple more days, my skin became incredibly dry, and a whitish layer appeared all over. Plus, my skin seems darker than it was before. I told the doctor about these reactions, and they advised me to stop using the cream. Is this a normal reaction? What should I do next to get my skin back to normal?
