White Spot

Hi, i have my white spot on my legs and arms whenever im in a cold place ( airconditioned place) its flat and not itchy, I tried to use nizoral cream and trosyd cream for 1 month but nothing happened. It makes me embarass especially in our office because they notice the white spot/white dot  and its like a fungal infection.
But whwn  i'm in warm or normal place my white spot will not appear.What kind of disease is this? is their any treatment or natural way to get rid of this skin problem? Is there any medicine that i can buy here in Philippines?

Hello,
For such spot, eczema needs to be ruled out which present as dry flaky spot. Do not use any cosmetic products at the sites. You can apply some calamine lotion at the rash as it will help in soothing the skin. You can take some OTC oral antihistamine medications like Benadryl or Claritin and see if it helps.

For mild-moderate symptoms a weak steroid may be used (e.g. hydrocortisone as dermacort), whilst more severe cases require a higher-potency steroid (e.g. clobetasol propionate, fluocinonide).But they are available under prescription and should be taken only after consulting a dermatologist. Symptoms  can be exacerbated by dryness of the skin. Use good quality moisturizers to prevent moisture loss from the skin.

It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing.
