I'm struggling with acne and dark spots on my face. Over the years, I've tried many medicines, but they only seem to help as long as I'm taking them. Once I finish the course, after a month or so, the same issues pop back up. Back in 2012, my doctor prescribed some medicines, and then again in 2013, I was recommended Zeethrom 500 mg, Saslic face wash, Resoten 20 mg, and Calene gel. By 2014, the prescription included Resoten 20 mg and Nioclean gel. I've been using these treatments for about three years, but I stopped taking any medicine over the past two years. Could you suggest what I should do next? Should I consider continuing with medicine or try another treatment option?

I'm dealing with white patches on my skin and I think it might be vitiligo. I've already seen a doctor before who gave me a prescription for MELGAIN, but it's really pricey. Can you suggest something else that might work?

I'm really struggling with a fungal infection and it's just getting worse. I've tried using ebernet and nadibact plus, among other things, but nothing seems to work. It keeps spreading. Could you advise which specific medicine might actually help me? I'm genuinely worried about this.
