I'm dealing with lichen planus pigmentosus and have been for about two years now. Its still pretty active because I keep noticing new pigmentation, especially on my hands. I've got it on my face, neck, and arms too. I tried phototherapy, but it just made things darker, so I stopped that. I've been using Pynormax Tx Depiwhite on my face and neck, and Hydroquinone 5% solution on my hands. I'm also taking Xamic 500mg daily. How long can I keep using all these without worrying about side effects? And with the condition still active, would Glycopeel be a good option for my face and neck?

View allI'm a bit worried because my serum globulin level came back low at 2.8 in my recent liver function test. The normal range is listed as 3.0-4.8. Everything else in my liver profile seems okay, but I'm experiencing some issues like loss of appetite, flaky skin, dry skin rashes, hair fall, and even dents in my nails. Could the low serum globulin be the cause of these symptoms? I'm really curious about what's going on.

I've been dealing with these sores on my butt for a couple of months now, and they're really bothering me. They just won't heal or disappear, and when I mess with them, they get scabby and even bleed sometimes. They're just persistent sores that seem to scab over but never actually go away. What could this be, and how can I get rid of them?
1. *Pressure sores*: Prolonged sitting or pressure on the area can cause sores. 2. *Skin infections*: Bacterial, fungal, or viral infections can cause persistent sores. 3. *Anal fissures*: Small tears in the anal lining can cause painful sores. 4. *Hemorrhoids*: Swollen veins in the rectum can cause painful sores. *What to Do* 1. *See a doctor*: Consult a primary care physician, dermatologist, or proctologist for a proper diagnosis. 2. *Keep the area clean*: Gently wash the area with mild soap and lukewarm water. 3. *Avoid scratching*: Scratching can further irritate the sores and lead to infection. 4. *Apply topical creams*: Over-the-counter creams like hydrocortisone or antibiotic ointments may help soothe the sores.

I've been using Flutivate cream on and off for about 8 years now. It gives my skin a nice glow whenever I apply it, but if I stop using it, I end up with a rash, and then I feel like I have to start using it again. I'm really not sure what to do. Could you give me some honest advice about this situation?
To break the cycle of dependence on Flutivate cream, consult a dermatologist to create a gradual tapering schedule, explore alternative treatments like topical retinoids or vitamin C serums, and address underlying skin issues to minimize rebound effects and promote healthier skin.
