I'm dealing with melasma and pigmentation on my nose and skin, and I've tried tons of English medicines but haven't seen any results. I'm really interested in trying something new, but I'm curious about how long it might take to fully clear up this issue. Can you give me some guidance on that?

View allI've been dealing with lichen planus, which appeared on my foot a couple of years ago. Back then, Allegra 180 mg and Halox S ointment worked for me, but now it's flared up on my hands and face. I'm really worriedespecially since it's on my face. Is there any advanced treatment or maybe even surgery that could offer a permanent solution? Also, are there any lifestyle changes I should consider? It's starting to stress out not just me but my whole family. Could really use some advice here.
Lichen planus can be challenging to treat, but there are options available. For the recurrence on your hands and face, you can try using Tacrolimus ointment along with Allegra 180 mg tablets. Tacrolimus ointment can help reduce inflammation and itching on the affected areas. Additionally, you can continue using Halox s ointment for relief. There is no high-end treatment like surgery to permanently cure lichen planus, but lifestyle changes can help manage the condition. Avoiding triggers such as stress, certain medications, and allergens can help prevent flare-ups.

I'm really concerned about these dark circles under my eyes. Is it safe to use mometasone cream for them? I heard about something called MMS cream, any idea what brand that is? And, by the way, are there any potential side effects I should worry about?
Avoid using Mometasone cream (brand names: MMS Cream, Elocon, Momate) for dark circles under the eyes, as it can cause side effects like skin thinning, glaucoma, cataract formation, rosacea-like symptoms, and dependence, instead consider alternative eye creams or consult a dermatologist.

I'm having these rashes and itches on my face, especially where I shave. Sometimes there's this burning sensation. It's been going on for over 10 years now, and I've tried so many medicines, but nothing seems to work. Some doctors said it's an allergy from my hair oil. Others think my skin's just really dry and sensitive. Plus, I'm dealing with hair fall and itching in my scalp too. Any advice on what could be going on or what I should try next?
That could be due to allergy, identify the triggering factor and avoid it, maintain healthy lifestyle.
