Ive been thinking about trying glutathione capsules, but I have a few grey hairs already and Im a bit worried. Since glutathione is known to increase melanin production for fairer skin, could it also increase melanin in my hair and turn all of it grey? Should I go ahead with taking glutathione, or is there a risk that all my hair could turn grey?

I've been dealing with ringworm for a whole year now, and none of the treatments I've tried seem to be making any difference. I've used terbinafine and clotrimazole cream, ketoconazole lotion and soap, and even took terefin and itrasys tablets. It's getting really frustrating. Do you have any advice on what I could try next or why these aren't working? What should I do?

I've recently noticed these small black spots on my lower back, kind of the size of an inch coin. They're not itchy, but they do hurt a little when I press on them. Should I be worried about this?

Could be due to a condition called Tinea Versicolor, which is a fungal infection of the skin. I recommend using an antifungal medication such as Clotrimazole cream twice a day on the affected area for 2-4 weeks. Additionally, you can take oral antifungal medication like Fluconazole 150mg once a week for 2-4 weeks to treat the infection effectively. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry, and avoid tight clothing to help with the healing process.

I'm on the lookout for a cream that's good for fairness that won't come with any side effects and that I can use for the long run, especially since I have oily skin. Do you have any recommendations?

For fairness and to address oily skin in the long run, you can consider using a cream containing "Kojic acid" and "Niacinamide". One such cream is "Kojivit Plus Gel". It can be applied twice daily on the affected areas after cleansing the skin. Remember to use sunscreen during the day while using this cream.
