What Medicine Should Be Taken For White Patches On Lips, Hands, Fingers, And Toes?

Doctor, I have white patches in my lips, hand finger edges and leg toes. Now it seems spreading to hand palms as well. Recently I came across a medicine called Lukoskin an ayurvedic medicine developed by Defence Research Organisation (DRDO). Could you please advice me on this medicine. Already I met 3 dermatologists, their advice is not to worry about., just leave it as such. Since medication includes steroids of kind depressing immune system.

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
If this is vitiligo then you have to have the treatment from the dermatologist only, because it is lengthy course, and you have to follow it regularly without changing the dermatologist, if it is not vitiliog then the steroid is the only way to treat the condition, have nice day.
I find this answer helpful
