I'm using the Sebamed sunscreen with SPF 50, and it seems to be working fine for me. But I'm a bit confused and worried about whether it's safe to use SPF 50 all the time, especially since I can't find the Sebamed sunscreen lotion with SPF 30. They do have a spray version with SPF 30, but I'm not sure if a spray is as effective. I've read some advice from doctors that sprays might not be as good. Can you help me figure out if I'm using the right sunscreen? I'm also using a face wash and moisturizer from the same brand.

View allI'm 17 and still don't have a full beard or mustache. Could there be something wrong with me? Is there a way I can speed up the growth? I have a few hairs on my chin but not across my entire face. What can I do to help it along?
Delayed facial hair growth at 17 can be due to hormonal imbalances, genetics, or nutritional deficiencies; to promote growth, ensure adequate sleep, exercise regularly, eat a balanced diet rich in protein, biotin, and vitamins D and B, consider supplements like biotin or fish oil, and consult a dermatologist

I'm really worried about a condition my nephew has. He's 8 years old and has been dealing with white spots on his skin that seem to be spreading. They started on his feet, then moved to his knees, and now theyre all over his body. We've been taking him to a dermatologist, but I'm anxious to know if there's a chance of this being cured completely, or if it's something that will last a lifetime. Can you shed some light on this?
Vitiligo is a chronic skin condition where white patches develop on the skin due to a lack of melanin. While there is no definitive cure for vitiligo, treatment options are available to help manage the condition and improve the appearance of the skin. One common treatment is the use of topical corticosteroids, such as Clobetasol cream, applied to the affected areas to help repigment the skin. Another option is phototherapy, which involves exposing the skin to UV light to stimulate melanin production. In more severe cases, oral medications like Methoxsalen may be prescribed to help repigment the skin.

I've been dealing with a fungal infection on my hips for the past two years, and it's getting unbearable. It hurts a lot and the itching is intense, sometimes even causing bleeding when I itch. I've been treating it for two years, but the moment I stop the medication, it comes back. I can't even get a good night's sleep because of it. Can you please help me figure out what to do?
Lulican cream for local application for atleast 2 weeks is advised to the patient.
