Now I am left with the whole bottom of my face blotchy and discolored, my neck the same and white spots on my stomach and back around my shoulder blades. I read that apple cidder vinegar and/or tanning would help.
I am so lost and confused. I was diagnosed with 2 differ things by 2 differ drs here and not sure where to go to next since this is a new environment for me I am scared to go to anymore drs in this area.
t diagnosed til after the birth of my second daughter ( started tanning and it exploded oops...) so knowing it may come back it would be nice to be prepared my spots just got back to normal at least they aren't as noticeable. Not to be vain or dramatic but being preggo is hard enough without looking like a dalmation or being super itvhy. Are selsun blue treatments still safe with cooking a baby that is the best prevention I can think of?
Treatment involves topical and oral antifungal medicines. Most cases of fungal infections respond to over-the-counter products, which contain any of several basic ingredients: miconazole, tolnaftate, terbinafine,ketaconazole and clotrimazole. You can consult a pharmacist and get any cream or lotion containing these ingredients. Some of them are Lamisil, Monistat derm, Mycelex, and Nizoral.
If the rash persists then it will be best to get it evaluated from a dermatologist.
I GOT THESE TINY WHITE SPOTS ON MY BACK AND STOMACH FOR OVER A YEAR. I HAD LOOK UP ON THE NET, HOPE TO FIND SOME INFORMATION ABOUT IT AND ALL THEY SAY THAT IT'S FROM THE SUN, FROM TANNING AND BLAH BLAH.
HOWEVER, I AM SURE THAT THEY'RE NOT FROM THE SUN BECAUSE I DIDN'T GO TO THE BEACH MORE THAN ONCE IN THE SUMMER, AND I NEVER TAN. I WENT TO MY DOCTOR AND HE GAVE ME SOME KIND OF MEDICINE THAT WAS LIKE LOTION. HE TOLD ME TO APPLY IT ON MY BACK AND TUMMY 30MIN.
I am a 23 year old, and was diagnosed over a month ago with persistent (gestational) trophoblastic disease, but have not yet received chemotherapy treatment. I've used tanning beds on and off since my teenage years (never more than once a week as of the past couple years). My question is- will it affect my type of cancer if I were to go tanning in a salon? I understand I should avoid any type of UV rays once I start chemo... but as of right now, is it okay to do so?
I use to tan a lot in the sun and use tanning bed; however I do not anymore. I have acquired what I believe is sun spots from too much exposure and those areas are now white. Is there a product on the market that can be purchased so that the white spots will even out with the rest of my skin? I also have a lot of age spots (brown spots) on my legs and arms; which I believe is also from the sun and tanning beds. Is there also a product for this available on the market?
We have had a very big campaign in Australia to try to ban indoor tanning. A girl died from a melanoma caused by indoor tanning. Many of the salons have closed do to not knowing the ramifications of it. If you go to a salon make sure they know the rules and regulations on how long etc you should be doing it. Quite honestly it is a dangerous thing as the UV rays are up to 100% stronger than the outdoor sun. So do take care!!! This is regardless of any thyroid or other problem!

I hope it helps.
The next day or the day after, I went to the gym and after my workout used the stand up tanning bed. I noticed in the bed these spots under the UV lighting, what looked like a red rash and thought it had something to do with the heat from laser + tanning. Unfortunately, these spots are now visible around my bikini area and lower navel area (also treated with laser hair removal). They are a tan color and when I shower, they get darker.
my OB said tanning while breastfeeding is fine....
When I first started tanning, I started to notice a darker coloration in pigment below my eyes, on my check, lips, and nose, and I thought that I was getting freckles from tanning, but I asked the owner of the salon and he assured me to use Selsun Blue, because he said the darker smaller spots are a fungus that come about from the ulttraviolet rays from the tanning salon or extreme exposure to sun.
Get some aloe vera gel for the burn/blisters (pure aloe is best.) Also Tylenol or ibuprofen will help the pain a bit. Drink plenty of fluids. Orange juice is a good choice. I had a very bad burn once that caused me to be in the ER. They gave me IV fluids and told me about the ibuprofen and fluids. They specifically mentioned orange juice ... maybe for the potassium.
Also, I'm sure you're already aware, but tanning isn't a good thing to do.
