I'm dealing with seborrheic dermatitis, and it's been going on for quite a while now. I initially thought it was just dandruff, but it has definitely gotten worse lately. I'm really not sure of the best way to treat it, and I could use some guidance on where to start. Any advice on how to handle this would be much appreciated.

I'm really worried because I've been dealing with vitiligo for five years now. I've been using topgraf ointment, malgain lotion, and taking pigmento tablets. At first, the treatment worked great and 80% of my patches were cured, but in the past year, nothing seems to work anymore. The old patches are still there and now Im even getting new ones. What's going on and what should I do? It's frustrating.

I've been dealing with multiple lipomas on my hands and thighs and I'm really hoping there's a treatment option besides surgery. I tried homeopathic medicine before but didn't see any improvement - are there other effective treatments I could explore?

Surgery is the most effective option for multiple lipomas; non-surgical treatments have limited results.

I've noticed these pearly penile papules on my penis for about two months now and I'm really concerned. Whats the best treatment for this?

They are a normal anatomical variation and not a disease or sexually transmitted infection (STI). PPP is harmless, does not require treatment, and does not cause any long-term health issues. However, if they bother you cosmetically or cause psychological distress, there are treatment options available.
