My brother has had stable vitiligo for about a year now after 5 years. Is there any surgery or treatment that can bring his skin back to normal within 2 months? If not, what's the fastest way to restore his normal skin? He's really stressed about starting college in Hyderabad with this condition.

While a complete return to normal skin color within two months is unlikely for vitiligo, several treatments can help improve the appearance and potentially slow the progression of the condition. Stable vitiligo means the condition hasn't spread for a year, which is a good sign, but it's crucial to remember that vitiligo is a chronic condition, and there is no cure

I'm wondering how I should use Onabet SD solution for my hair. Should I apply it directly or mix it with water first? Once I've applied it, how long should I leave it on my hair, and what steps should I follow afterward?

I've been experiencing some itching in between my fingers on both my hands and feet, but there aren't any red dots or rashes there. It's a bit concerning, and I'm not really sure what's causing it. Could there be a reason for this itching even without visible signs like rashes?
