I've noticed my tongue has turned white and looks coated over the past week. I tried looking it up online and experimented with some home remedies like brushing with salt and gargling with water, but nothing seems to work. Can you recommend other methods that might help?

I've been using Cutihyde and Momerex creams for my black spots for about 4 years now. They worked great, but every time I try to stop, the spots come back. I even tried using different creams like one with kojic acid, but they didn't work for me. I haven't used Cutihyde and Momerex creams since last month, and now the spots are bigger than ever. I'm really worried about this and I feel embarrassed facing people. Can you help me figure out what I should do?

It seems like you have been dealing with stubborn black spots on your face. Since you have already tried cutihyde and momerex creams which were effective but the spots reappear when you stop using them, I would recommend trying a combination of creams containing hydroquinone, tretinoin, and a corticosteroid. You can use a cream like Tri-Luma, applying a thin layer once daily at night. Make sure to use sunscreen during the day as these ingredients can increase sensitivity to the sun. Additionally, incorporating a vitamin C serum in your skincare routine can also help with fading dark spots. Remember to be patient as it may take some time to see results.
