I'm noticing some white patches on my fingers and I've had them for a couple of months now. They don't seem to be spreading, which is a bit of a relief, but its still worrying me. After visiting a doctor, he told me it's vitiligo, but I'm not completely convinced. He prescribed some medications like Viterma capsules, Dermadew cream, Tacmod forte, Melanocyl ointment, Placentrex gel, and HHSONE cream. I've attached a few pictures for reference. Does this sound like vitiligo to you, and do you think these meds can actually help with it?

View allI'm experiencing this burning sensation on my scrotum, and my skin's turning red. It's not constant, but kind of comes and goes. Is there something I should be doing to ease this feeling? Would using something like Dettol be a good idea? I'd really appreciate any advice on what precautions to take to prevent this from happening again.
Could be due to a skin irritation or infection. Dettol is not recommended for use on the scrotum as it may further irritate the sensitive skin in that area. To help relieve the burning sensation and promote healing, you can try using a soothing cream or ointment containing zinc oxide or calamine. Additionally, keeping the area clean and dry is important.
