Question 3

I'm dealing with vitiligo, those safed daag, and I'm really worried. I've had it since 2004 and I'm 20 now. Is there any chance it can be cured?

Accepted Answer

Vitiligo is a long-term skin condition characterized by patches of the skin losing their pigment. While there is no known cure for vitiligo, there are treatment options available to help manage the condition and improve the appearance of the skin. Some common treatments include topical corticosteroids like Clobetasol propionate cream applied to the affected areas twice daily, phototherapy using UVB light, and calcineurin inhibitors like Tacrolimus ointment. It is important to consult a dermatologist for a proper evaluation and treatment plan tailored to your specific needs.

I'm a 33-year-old guy and I've been using Minokem N 5 lotion, which has Minoxidil, Azelaic acid, and Tretinoin, for about 7 years now. While my hair loss seems under control, I haven't seen any major hair growth. So far, I haven't experienced any sid...

Accepted Answer

Long-term use of Minokem N 5% lotion (Minoxidil + Azelaic acid + Tretinoin) may lead to potential side effects, such as skin irritation, dryness, or allergic reactions, although rare; while minoxidil is generally safe for long-term use, azelaic acid and tretinoin may increase skin sensitivity, and prolonged use of tretinoin can lead to skin thinning or increased risk of skin cancer; consult a dermatologist to assess your individual risk-benefit profile and determine if lifelong use is advisable, considering regular monitoring and potential adjustments to your treatment plan.

Question 6

I'm dealing with really high Immunoglobulin IGE and I've been getting this annoying skin rash and itching. My skin doctor prescribed levocetirizine to calm the itching down, but after taking it for two months, nothing's changed. Do you think I'm seei...

Accepted Answer

It seems like the skin doctor's approach of prescribing levocetirizine to suppress the itching caused by high Immunoglobulin E levels has not been effective in your case. Since elevated IgE levels are related to the immune system and can contribute to skin issues like rash and itching, it might be beneficial to consult with an Allergist or Immunologist for further evaluation and management. They may recommend specific medications such as Montelukast along with antihistamines like Fexofenadine to address the underlying cause of the elevated IgE levels and provide relief from the symptoms.
