We are a virtual platform which is concerned with sharing information about various diseases and treatments available for each, along with information regarding augmentation surgeries, we additionally use our network to help people connect with right practitioners as well, but we do not perform such treatments ourselves.
Although, based on our experience in dealing with user concerns so far, and communicating same to doctors who then give us the required details to pass on, what we can say is, that vitiligo is not curable. And while we wouldn't want to dismiss findings of doctors from any field, be it ayurveda, homeopathy, or allopathy, but what we will say is, that allopathy can prove to be more effective in most of the cases. Now vitiligo isn't curable, but with allopathic treatment you will see change on temporal basis or witness slow down in the rate at which the color loss occurs.
Topical medications, systemic treatments and phototherapy are some options which can be explored, but if nothing works then there are surgical treatments as well, which will either help in bringing back some skin color, or may even out skin tone too, there will be change but the results will be inconsistent.
However, as a part of team which is dedicated to guiding people on medical issues with all sincerity, we will be honest and go as far as saying that the slight change you may/will observe in your kid, with regards to either his appearance or the rate at which his condition progresses, both will come at a cost, and that is him facing severe side effects.
For more information, you can get in touch with our trusted experts on this page - Vitiligo Treatment doctors in Mumbai. Cost of any treatment you avail regarding this issue should fall within the range of 25k to 45k. We will advise you to discuss side effects with our specialists in length, and neutralizing actions for them as well, do let us know if you need list based on a different city or if you ever need guidance on any medical issue, take care!

Female | 17
Boils are caused by infected hair follicles and can be painful and swollen. To help them heal, apply warm compresses to the area at least three times a day. This can reduce pain and help the boil drain naturally. Keep the area clean and avoid squeezing or picking at the boil, as this can worsen the infection. If the boil does not get better or gets bigger, it is a good idea to consult a dermatologist for a check-up and treatment.

Hi ! My Name is Hasham and when I was 3 year old my body color change the brown spots suddenly appear on my full body please doctor help me please give me any solution so I get rid of that spots
Male | 24
You may be talking about a condition called vitiligo. Whenever your skin is damaged, the cells that are responsible for giving it its color get destroyed and this results in white or brownish spots on the skin. This could be a result of many factors including genetics or autoimmune diseases. Even though there is no known cure for vitiligo yet, there are treatments such as lotions and light therapy that can help to manage these patches and make them less noticeable. Make sure that you see a dermatologist so that you can learn more about the available options.

Stitches on web of hand have opened and now there is pus and earlier a large red mass on stiches
Male | 14
You may have an infection in the stitches on your hand. When pus comes out, it indicates that there is probably bacteria which is causing the infection. This might have occurred if the wound was not kept clean. If there was a large red lump previously, it could have been an abscess. It’s crucial to have this seen by medical professional because, without proper care, things like these can worsen.

ear lump from piercing in helix bleeding and swelling and irritation
Female | 15
There’s a lump in your ear above where the earrings go. If it’s swollen, red, or bleeds, it might be an infected piercing. Infections happen when bacteria enter through broken skin. To help it heal faster clean it with saline solution, don’t touch it with unclean hands, and use warm compresses several times a day. If this doesn’t work you should see a dermatologist.

Hi I got a hot water burn in my penis last night and part of the skin is like peeling and red what should I do?
Male | 18
You have a burn on your penis from hot water, and now the skin is peeling and red. Burns can be painful so it’s important to take care of them. Gently clean the area with cool water and a mild soap. You could also use aloe vera gel or some kind of soothing cream to help it heal. Don’t wear tight clothes that will irritate it more either. If it still hurts or stays red after all this, talk to a dermatologist.

It appears you might have a severe sunburn, exhibiting signs of sun poisoning. When you experience an intense sunburn, sun poisoning can occur.

I am 22 years old and I am facing with eczema on my finger it's kind of a dry itchy and small swellings on that finger and that spreading on other fingers of my hand too I have tried many creams but it helps temporarily and again the condition continues.. what should I do?
Female | 22
When ignored, eczema can cause dry, itchy skin with small bumps that may spread to other fingers. This condition is usually not contagious but uncomfortable. Eczema may be brought about by allergens or irritants present in the environment or stressors at home or the workplace. To manage this kind of problem, always keep the skin moisturized all the time; avoid anything that triggered the outbreak such as harsh detergent soaps among others–instead use mild ones which are readily available over-the-counter (OTC) drugs like hydrocortisone creams can also work effectively if prescribed by doctors specializing in treating diseases related with epidermis.

Female | 17
Swelling, pain, and discoloration in the toe are normal after the ingrowing toenail is removed because of the bruising. It may be from the shots that removed the sensation in the area. Don't worry; if it's been a day since the procedure, the formation of a bruise is common. Temperature, severe pain, redness of skin, or the presence of any pus are signs of infection. Follow the recommendations for keeping the region spotless, raising your foot, and taking painkillers. If you think you set out signs of infection, contact a dermatologist.

I have mouth ulcers. Which are really painful. I use nilstat or the powder of vibramycin capsule for gargle as a cure for ulcers. But the issue is as one ulcer gets cure another ulcer pops up again. Which is yellowish and the surrounded with red skin.
Male | 22
Mouth sores may result from tension, injury from unintentionally biting your cheek, or certain food items. It's awesome that you're in the process of using Nilstat or vibramycin powder in your mouth for gargling, but if you are still experiencing new ulcers, make a dentist or a doctor visit. Try not to eat acidic food. Take enough vitamins and minerals in your diet to support overall mouth health.

There are a few reasons why you might have that strange dark line on your nail. If you hurt your nail at all, even just a little bit, it could cause this. On the other hand, not having enough vitamins might also be the cause. Don’t worry if you feel fine and have no other symptoms besides the line, it’s not worth it. In case you do start feeling sick or notice anything else strange happening with your body, visit a dermatologist.

Surgery was done on keloid on my back but it's not healing fast. What should I do to make it not to grow back
Male | 43
Keloids are raised, pink scars that can grow beyond the original wound area. They are caused by an excessive production of collagen during the healing process. To prevent their recurrence, you should keep the wound clean, use silicone gel sheets, and abstain from activities that might irritate the skin. If the keloid persists in causing problems, other treatment options like steroid injections or laser therapy can be considered. Ensure to follow up with a dermatologist to discuss what should be done next.
