I've noticed that I've got these small white spots on my hand, right where the upper and lower skin meet. They've been around for quite some time, and at first, there were only a few, but now I've got a lot more. I'm a bit worried about what might be causing them and if it's something I should be concerned about. Could you shed some light on what's going on?

This could be fungal infection u need to evaluate with your Dermatologist and get appropriate treatment with oral antifungal medications and topical lotions,once the infection is resolved your hair fall would come down,I suggest you not to use minoxidil with active fungal infection,above this your personal hygiene care is more important.

View allI'm hoping to get some advice on using erytop cream for my acne. Should I be applying it in the morning or at night? Also, I'm 22 and just a bit concerned about any side effects if I use it for a long time. What's your take on that?
For acne treatment with Erytop cream, it is usually recommended to apply it at night before bedtime. Cleanse your face before applying a thin layer of Erytop cream on the affected areas. As for long term use, Erytop cream may cause side effects such as dryness, redness, peeling, or irritation of the skin. It is important to use a good moisturizer and sunscreen during the day while using Erytop cream to minimize these side effects.

I'm struggling with acne and dark spots on my face. Over the years, I've tried many medicines, but they only seem to help as long as I'm taking them. Once I finish the course, after a month or so, the same issues pop back up. Back in 2012, my doctor prescribed some medicines, and then again in 2013, I was recommended Zeethrom 500 mg, Saslic face wash, Resoten 20 mg, and Calene gel. By 2014, the prescription included Resoten 20 mg and Nioclean gel. I've been using these treatments for about three years, but I stopped taking any medicine over the past two years. Could you suggest what I should do next? Should I consider continuing with medicine or try another treatment option?

I'm concerned about using aziderm cream for the black spots on my face. After applying it, I felt a burning sensation after just a few minutes. Is this a normal reaction, or could there be a problem with the cream? I'm really looking to find a safe way to get rid of these spots. What do you suggest?
The burning sensation you are experiencing after applying aziderm cream is a common side effect, especially if you have sensitive skin. It may be due to the active ingredient in the cream, which is azelaic acid. If the burning sensation is severe or persistent, you should discontinue the use of the cream and consult your doctor. To remove black spots on your face, you can consider using a different cream containing ingredients like hydroquinone, kojic acid, or retinoids. Some options include Melalite cream, Kojivit gel, or Retin-A cream. These creams can help lighten the dark spots and improve the overall appearance of your skin.
