I'm really worried about my sister's skin. She's got a naturally dusky tone, but her job in sales means she's out in the field a lot, and it's made her skin even darker. I think it's because of increased melanin from all that sun exposure. Can you recommend any remedies to reduce the tanning and help get her skin back to its original color?

I've been experiencing some side effects on my neck from using melameate cream consistently. There are these dark, long-shaped spots and it's starting to itch. How can I treat this? And if I decide to use the cream again, should I use it continuously or take breaks? If breaks are needed, how often should I take them?

You may be experiencing a reaction to the melamet cream. To treat the dark long shaped spots and itching on your neck, you can use a mild steroid cream like hydrocortisone 1% cream twice a day for 1-2 weeks. Additionally, you can take an oral antihistamine like cetirizine 10mg once daily to help with the itching. It may be best to switch to a different medication if the current one is giving you adverse reactions.
