White spots on my stomach, [pictures of me]?
The Selsun Blue shampoo idea is correct - your spots look like a minor fungal issue which causes the skin not to tan. Rub a little of the shapoo in in the morning and before bed. My kid had a couple of these on his face and it took 2 months for the ingredient in the shampoo to eliminate the fungus. Sounds gross but the cure is easy.
I have white spots on my stomach and back, help?
I had a huge one of those on my back and I had some on my stomach. Usually it is a fungus thing in your skin (sounds gross I know) but usually in the summer when you sweat it just setlles in your skin and happens. I went to the dermatologist and got a special cream that made it go away in a week or so, but I have heard of the selsun blue (or other dandruff shampoo) thing before, it just takes longer.
What are these white spots on my stomach for more than a year now!!!??
so about a year ago, I started to have these small white spots on my stomach. I immediately went to my doctor, and he said that I had a fungal infection and gave me some antibiotics. I used the antibiotics for a week, and they were less noticeable but didn't disappear. After visiting the doctor again he said that they would go away after a little bit of tanning. Being a swimmer, I stayed more in the sun and tried to get rid of the spots. However, the spots reappeared again during the summer, and not only on my stomach area but also around the lower back and underarms (if that's a word). Now I have been applying lotion to my skin because I think that it might have something to do with dry skin. How do I get rid of these spots? Here are some pictures of it: when I have dry skin: http://i293.photobucket.com/albums/mm48/swimmerdude945/04-16-08_1806.jpg with lotion: http://i293.photobucket.com/albums/mm48/swimmerdude945/04-13-08_1746.jpg Thanks to anyone who can help me resolve this!
