I've been dealing with ringworm for a year now, and allopathy hasn't really helped. I've switched to Ayurveda, and it seems to be showing some good results. But I came across something online that mentioned Salicylic Acid or sapat lotion might work fast, like in just two days. I'm pretty frustrated at this point and would really appreciate an honest answer. Is there any truth to this idea?

Having vitiligo for the past 16 years on my legs, palms, feet, penile area, chest, etc., and I regularly use Vitiskin, Topcort, and Topgraf. Do you think these treatments are effective in managing it? Should I be doing anything differently or trying out other treatments? It's been such a long time, and I'm a bit concerned about the spread and whether I'm on the right track with these products. Any advice would be appreciated.

I'm noticing that my hair is starting to turn brown, and it's only just begun happening. I'm a bit concerned and curious about why this could be happening. What might be causing this change, and are there any solutions or treatments I should consider?

Hair turning brown can be due to various reasons such as nutritional deficiencies, hormonal changes, stress, or even genetics. To address this issue, you can try using hair products that are specifically designed to enhance and maintain hair color. Additionally, incorporating a balanced diet rich in vitamins and minerals, such as biotin and zinc, can help improve hair health and color. You may also consider consulting a dermatologist for further evaluation and personalized recommendations.

I've noticed my skin tone is a bit uneven and there's a tan on my face. My dermatologist recommended I start using Demelan cream. Before this, I was using Tretinoin 0.04. Is it alright to switch between Tretinoin and Demelan cream every other night?
