I'm noticing that the skin around my thigh and under the testicles is changing color, sometimes getting darker and at other times looking pale. I've been using Candid B cream and baby powder to keep the area dry, but it doesn't seem to be improving. Should I be worried about these changes in skin color? Is there something else I should be doing?

View allI'm really worried because I've got these big white patches on my feet that started appearing a while back. I've been seeing a dermatologist since August, but there hasn't been any improvement so far. I've been using Pacroma, Topcort, and Vitix, and before that, I was on Olmis and Melgain. Plus, I've been taking antioxidants. I'm just really anxious about this and wondering if there's anything else I should be doing to help with this condition?
It seems like you are suffering from vitiligo, a skin condition that causes loss of skin color in patches. The treatment you are currently on includes Pacroma (Tacrolimus) and Topcort (Clobetasol) which are used to help repigment the skin. In addition to these, you can continue using Vitix (Khellin) which is also beneficial for vitiligo. Since you mentioned that you were previously advised to use Olmis instead of Pacroma and Melgain, you can discuss with your dermatologist about switching back to Olmis (Pimecrolimus) if there was no improvement with Pacroma. Continue taking antioxidants as they can help in overall skin health. It's important to follow your dermatologist's advice closely and have regular follow-up appointments to monitor your progress.

I've been using Sebowash shampoo for about a month based on my doctor's advice, and I'm really pleased with how much better my hair's condition is now. But my doctor mentioned I shouldn't keep using it after my hair improves. I'm wondering, what kind of regular shampoo should I switch to in order to keep my hair healthy?

Can homeopathy really cure herpes? I'm worried if this is just a scam for money or if there's some truth to it. Any information would help.
While some homeopathic remedies claim to treat herpes, there is no scientific evidence to support their effectiveness, and many experts consider these claims to be unsubstantiated and potentially fraudulent, as the US FDA and National Institutes of Health (NIH) have not approved any homeopathic remedies for herpes treatment.
