I've been dealing with a really persistent ringworm infection for about a year now. I've seen a few dermatologists and the treatments they gave me worked while I was taking them, but as soon as I finished the course, the infection just came right back. I've tried using ointments like Terbifine and Onabet, and more recently, Dk gel, Nailrox cream, and tablets like Itaspor and Xyzal. I even used Absorbz soap. I used everything as prescribed up to last month, but here I am again, facing the same itching and rashes. Is there any way to get rid of this permanently?

I've had vitiligo for 12 years with white patches on my hands and feet. I've tried medications like Melanocyl and currently take Trioxsalen tablets, Trimop forte, and Betamethasone sodium phosphate tablets. Is there a faster, more permanent solution through surgery? What kind of surgery would work and where can I get it done?

Surgical options like melanocyte transplantation or grafting may help stable vitiligo. Check centers like AIIMS, PGIMER, or private dermatology clinics.
