Thank you for everything!
IGH has not one thing to do with the sun,it simply becomes more apparent as you tan. It is the absense of melanin (color) just as it is when your hair turns gray. As we age we lose pigment an these small spots do increase each year as we age. They have proven that people who have nevere tanned still get them. Grafting of healthy pigmented skin has shown to help just as Cryotherapy. It will still continue to happen in other areas as you age. The assumption it happens because of the sun has no basis and is simply a guess from those who put little time and effort in to the actual cause which is simply age.
Dear Dr Aparna: - skin allergies generalized hives sometimes starting skalp and face and other times in lower legs and feet. I end up in the emergency room with other problems triggered (asthma or shortness of breath or feverish condition). i realized that i was not crazy when thinking that it could be caiser by sweting (ex. Near the sock elastic when exercizing or in my head. Iwas taking allergy shots every week, after doing standard allergy tests, but to stop last December because of a cold. Two questions: 1 should I continue with the allergy shots or is there a better treatment? 2 Could you recommena dr in Miami that diagmose and trest this condition? Should it be specialized in allergy or dermatology?
I am writing because you once tried to help someone with the same thing I have, please take a look at my profile - it is filled with my scalp condition problem.
