I'm really worried because I've been noticing these white spots on my feet that keep spreading. It's been over a month now, and even though my doctor prescribed this ointment called Halonexts, I'm not seeing any improvement. My skin is peeling, and the white patches are just getting worse. Can you help me figure out what's going on?
