I'm dealing with chronic urticaria and have been on treatment for the past 8 months, but I haven't noticed any improvement at all. I'm really starting to worry. Is there any effective treatment available for this condition? Would appreciate your help.

I'm trying to figure out how to use the lotions my doctor recommended for white patches on my lips. They told me to use Melbild and Tacrovera, but I'm not sure which one should go on first or if it matters at all. Can I just apply them in any order? I'm really hoping to get this right.

The Melbild lotion should be applied first on the white patches on your lips. Apply a thin layer of Melbild lotion on the affected areas once daily, preferably at night. After the Melbild lotion has dried, you can then apply the Tacrovera lotion. Use the Tacrovera lotion as directed by your doctor, usually twice daily, in the morning and at night. Make sure to follow your doctor's instructions carefully for the best results.

I'm dealing with chickenpox and the scabs have dried, but they haven't started falling off yet. I scratched a few of the blisters earlier and I'm really worried they'll turn into scars. Should I wait until I'm fully recovered to see a dermatologist, or do you think I should make an appointment sooner to prevent any marks?

You can wait until the scabs have fallen off and the skin has fully healed before consulting a dermatologist. However, if you've scratched the blisters, it's best to consult a dermatologist sooner to minimize the risk of scarring. They can assess the affected areas and provide guidance on: 1. Topical treatments to reduce inflammation and promote healing. 2. Scar prevention and management strategies. Schedule an appointment within the next 7-10 days to ensure timely intervention.
