I've been dealing with an infection that keeps popping up on the back of my head, right on the scalp. I usually use soframycin, and it clears up in about 3 to 4 days, but then it just reappears after maybe 1 to 2 months. I'm trying to figure out what's causing this and what precautions I should be taking to prevent it from coming back. Any insights you could share?

View allI'm dealing with 90% vitiligo and it seems like even a minute in the sun makes my skin turn red, itchy, and it feels like a sunburn. If my skin's wet, the sunburn gets really bad and blisters start forming. I'm worried about this and would love your advice on what medication I might need. What can I do to help with this?

I'm really concerned about my skin pigmentation. I've been using a skin shine cream for about a month now, and while it did make my skin look paler, once I stopped using it, I noticed the pigmentation came back. Is it safe to continue using this cream for a longer period? Or is there a better way to handle this so my skin doesn't keep reverting when I stop?

I've just moved to Pune from the UK after living there for five years, and it's only been about four months. Recently, I've developed a skin issue. For the last three weeks, I've noticed a bump on the shaft of my penis. It isn't painful, but it's concerning me. Could this be related to the weather change or maybe some kind of disease?
That needs evaluation,visit dermatologist for the same
