I'm struggling with a fungal infection that's been bothering me for over 10 years. I've tried all sorts of tablets and ointments, but nothing really works. Could this be something genetic or hereditary? Is there actually a treatment out there for such a stubborn fungal infection?

I'm really worried about how much melanin my body seems to be producing lately. It feels like it's getting worse every day. I started using sunscreen, but I'm scared the damage might already be done. How can I prevent and reduce melanin production effectively? Any advice would be really appreciated.

To prevent and reduce the production of melanin in your body, in addition to using sunscreen, you can consider using topical creams containing hydroquinone, kojic acid, or azelaic acid. These can help lighten dark spots and inhibit melanin production. You can also incorporate vitamin C serums into your skincare routine, as they have brightening properties. Additionally, oral supplements like glutathione or vitamin E may help in reducing melanin production internally. Make sure to consult with a dermatologist before starting any new treatment.

I'm really worried because I've been using this fairness cream for a month, and now my skin's gotten dull and I've started getting pimples. My skin used to be pretty good before this. Could the cream be damaging my skin? What should I do to fix it?

It sounds like you may be experiencing a reaction to the cream you have been using. To help improve your skin condition, I recommend stopping the use of the current cream and switching to a gentle cleanser and a non-comedogenic moisturizer. You can also consider using a topical acne treatment containing benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid for the pimples. Additionally, incorporating a vitamin C serum can help brighten your skin. Remember to always use sunscreen during the day to protect your skin.

I've been dealing with exfoliative cheilitis, and my lips are constantly dry and peeling. They even turn white when they touch water, which I think might be a side effect from some vitamin supplements I took, though I can't remember exactly which ones. I'm currently seeing a dermatologist, but I haven't noticed much improvement. Is this condition something that can be cured?

Dermat opinion is advised to the patient.
