Rep Power: 0 | White Spots on the side of face Hey everyone, I recently noticed these white spots on the side of my face,which look like a skin discolouration ..they're not distinctly "white" but you can notice then from up close ..they don't itch or anything,but seem to be spreading a little more . I was wondering if anyone else experienced such a thing?im thinking it may be Tinea versicolor??..does anyone know of any cures to get rid of this problem? I googled and I heard people mention Lamasil foot cream and I also heard of selsun blue extra strength,I recently purchased a cream by the name of Cenesta ..and I have selsun blue but not the extra strength one,could any of these possibly do the trick?Thanx in advance! |

If you see a change your on the right path. 2 weeks of Selsum Blue seems to work well. Let it on the skin for several minutes and use it on your entire body.

Rep Power: 0 | Re: White Spots on the side of face [b]Nizoral is the correct spelling and I have heard that it is the #1 remedy out there. You can conveniently purchase it a local dug mart store such as shoppers drug mart. It is used all over the body for 10 to 15 mins a day and then washed off, make sure that before using you shower so that the skin that you are applying to is clean. Use it once a day for 2 weeks then once a week after that. I am not a dermatologist so it's best to consult your family physician before proceeding with the above information given. |
