I'm really concerned about my fiance's dark knuckles on her hands and feet. The doctor recommended she takes Vitamin B12, Vitamin E, and Restretra HD tablets for a month. I'm curious about what could be causing these dark knuckles. Also, I'm wondering if Restretra will truly help with this issue. Could you provide some insight into this?

View allI'm really worried about a condition my nephew has. He's 8 years old and has been dealing with white spots on his skin that seem to be spreading. They started on his feet, then moved to his knees, and now theyre all over his body. We've been taking him to a dermatologist, but I'm anxious to know if there's a chance of this being cured completely, or if it's something that will last a lifetime. Can you shed some light on this?
Vitiligo is a chronic skin condition where white patches develop on the skin due to a lack of melanin. While there is no definitive cure for vitiligo, treatment options are available to help manage the condition and improve the appearance of the skin. One common treatment is the use of topical corticosteroids, such as Clobetasol cream, applied to the affected areas to help repigment the skin. Another option is phototherapy, which involves exposing the skin to UV light to stimulate melanin production. In more severe cases, oral medications like Methoxsalen may be prescribed to help repigment the skin.
