I've noticed these small white patches on my thighs, and they've been there for about a month now. They seem to be spreading, and I'm getting really worried. There's no family history of vitiligo, which makes it even more confusing. I've tried using Momate cream and Tacroz 0.1 for two weeks, but there's no sign of improvement. Now, my dermatologist has prescribed Melgain lotion in the morning, Tacroz 0.1 at night, and T.Ascozinc for a month. Do you think this will actually help, or is there anything else I should be considering?

I'm worried because my skin is really sensitive to the sun. I've been using Suncrose 50, but I stopped using it for a few days and ended up with a sunburn. I'm wondering if it's okay to use Kojiglo cream to help with the sunburn?

You cannot use kojiglo cream for sunburn as it typically used for skin lightening and pigmentation issues.For sunburn treatment apply a cold compress, use a gentle moisturiser, drink plenty of water to stay hydrated, consider using pain relief meds if needed.

I've been hearing mixed opinions about whey protein and its link to hair loss. My dermatologist told me that my hair loss might be due to whey protein, but most of my friends who also take it haven't had any issues. Could you advise if it's really safe to keep consuming whey protein?

Whey protein is generally safe, but excessive consumption may potentially contribute to hair loss due to increased dihydrotestosterone (DHT) levels, although more research is needed to confirm this link.
