I'm really worried about this vitiligo I've had on my hands for the last 3 years. It's starting to spread to my face too. I've tried so many medications, but nothing seems to be helping. How can I stop it from spreading further?

I've been dealing with these wounds that are filled with pus, and they're just not healing even after using Cipladine ointment. Can you suggest some other medicine that might work? I'm getting worried it's not improving.

I've been having this issue for the past 78 days where I feel an itching sensation on my body, like on my thighs, arms, and even between my fingers. When I scratch them, they turn red. I'm really curious about what's causing this. Could you help me figure out why it's happening?

I'm thinking about using Skinlite cream for just a week, and I'm a bit worried. Can using it for only seven days cause any harm? Would love your advice.

Using Skinlite cream, which contains hydroquinone, for only 7 days is unlikely to cause significant harm, but it's essential to follow the recommended usage and consult a dermatologist, as prolonged or excessive use can lead to skin darkening, irritation, or other adverse effects.
