Question 1

I'm using Melanocyl ointment for my vitiligo as prescribed by my doctor, but I've developed a sore and a reddish patch on the area I'm treating. My doctor is currently on leave. What should I do about the sore?

Accepted Answer

Seems like you may be experiencing a reaction to the Melanocyl ointment. You can try using a mild corticosteroid cream like Hydrocortisone 1% cream on the sore area to reduce inflammation and itching. Apply a thin layer twice a day for a week. Additionally, you can use an antibiotic ointment like Neosporin to prevent infection. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please consult with another healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

Question 2

I'm dealing with this really annoying jock itch and I've already tried using Fourderm by Cipla, but it doesn't seem to be making a difference. Should I try a different medication, or is it better to just visit a doctor now? Any advice would be really appreciated.

Accepted Answer

Question 3

I've had a pimple near my eye for the past couple of days, and there's another one on my scalp. It's causing pain in my right eye, and there's some swelling at the bottom of it. Should I be concerned about this? What might be causing it, and is there anything I can do to relieve the symptoms?

Accepted Answer

Use a topical antibiotic ointment like Neosporin for the pimple near your eye and on your head scalp. Apply a small amount to the affected areas twice a day. Additionally, you can take an over-the-counter pain reliever like ibuprofen to help with the pain and swelling.
