View allCan you help me get rid of these hives that have spread all over my body? Every time I scratch them, dark spots appear on my skin. What should I do, and is there a way to prevent these spots?
You can take an antihistamine medication such as Cetirizine 10mg once daily. Additionally, you can apply a soothing calamine lotion on the affected areas to help relieve itching and reduce inflammation. It is important to avoid scratching the hives to prevent further dark spots from forming. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

I'm using Skinlite cream, and its made my skin a lot fairer, but whenever I stop using it, my skin turns darker again. I've been seeing a doctor for about six months now, but my skin hasn't improved. My face is still darker, and I really dont know what to do next. Can you recommend any effective skin lightening creams or treatments? I'm getting really worried.
See a specialist for accurate diagnosis and targeted treatment.

I'm struggling with vitiligo for the past 4 years and it's really concerning me. I've got these white patches on my neck and chest, and nothing seems to work. I followed a treatment plan for 34 months with tablets like Orofer after lunch, Meganeuron in the morning, used Melgain lotion after a bath, got some sun exposure before lunch, and applied Tacoz forte ointment at night, but there's been no improvement. I'm from Mumbai and Marine Lines is the closest station to me. Can you please guide me on what I might be doing wrong or if there's an alternative treatment I should consider?
Usually vitiligo is a chronic disease and takes time to heal,have patience and continue the treatment as advised by your doctor,consume protein rich food for better results.
