I noticed these white patches on the back of my neck and I'm not sure what they are. Could you give me an idea of what they might be and suggest any medications or treatments that could help?

That could be fungal infection which needs both oral and topical antifungal medications and personal hygiene is more important for such condition.

View allI'm trying to manage my dandruff situation and heard about using diprovate plus lotion on the scalp. I'm just wondering, can I actually apply it directly to my hair like I would with regular hair oil? Is there anything else I should know while using it?
Diprovate Plus lotion is a topical corticosteroid used to treat various skin conditions, including dandruff. To apply it to the scalp for dandruff, you should part your hair and apply a small amount of the lotion directly onto the affected areas of the scalp. Gently massage it into the scalp using your fingertips. It is important to avoid applying it to the hair shafts like regular hair oil, as it is specifically meant for the scalp. Use it as directed by your healthcare provider, usually once or twice daily.

I've been dealing with confluent reticulated papillomatosis for about a year now, and the dermatologist I saw gave me a steroid cream. It works for a bit, but then the condition just comes back. It's pretty embarrassing, and I'm really anxious about going out because of it. Is there any permanent treatment for this condition?
It takes time to heal you are using the right medicine,give some time to for it to heal, follow your doctors advice.

I'm using the Truderma Acne Kit that my doctor prescribed because I've been breaking out on my face. I think the night cream might not be working for me since it's making the spots darker instead of helping them. Is this normal or should I be concerned?
no problem
