I'm really curious to know if CO2 laser treatment truly works. Can you tell me what the side effects are and what precautions I need to take before and after the procedure? How long does it usually take to heal? And is this treatment actually good for getting rid of acne scars?

View allI'm really worried and curious about something. Is it true that eating milk and onions together, like in a sandwich or mixed with vegetables, can cause vitiligo? I'm just trying to understand how vitiligo actually happens. Is it some kind of viral issue? I'd appreciate any insights you could give me.
Consuming milk and onion together does not cause vitiligo. Vitiligo is a skin condition where the cells that produce skin pigment are destroyed, leading to white patches on the skin. The exact cause of vitiligo is not fully understood, but it is believed to be an autoimmune condition where the immune system mistakenly attacks the pigment-producing cells. Vitiligo is not viral. Treatment options for vitiligo include topical corticosteroids, calcineurin inhibitors, and phototherapy with medications like Tacrolimus ointment or Pimecrolimus cream.

I've been using VB7 forte for the last three months as my doctor recommended. Now I've just stopped taking it and I'm unsure if I should continue. How long should I be taking it for?

I'm dealing with some serious itching and irritation around my pubic area, and I'm really worried. There are these white or grey spots with light pink in between, and the skin looks different from the surrounding area. It seems like this is spreading to my groin and even affecting my scrotum, which also feels infected. It's really covering a good part of the area between my thighs, and the itching is just unbearable. What could this be, and how should I handle it?
That looks like fungal infection which needs oral and topical antifungal medication and personal hygiene is the main stay, visit Dermatologist for appropriate management.
