Skin problem
I was taking homeopathic medicine for dark circles since 1&1/2 year. But now suddenly since last month, I have dark skin with white spots on my chin nd neck area. Dr has diagnosed it as a ochronosis. Please tell me, wether this problem can be cured with homeopathic medicine? As dorctir told me that this disease occurs due to excessive use of hydroquinone. But I was only taking homeopathic medicine being given to me by my doctor..
Homepathic and Ayurvedic doctors also prescribe allopathic medicines. If the cream that you homepathic doctor gave you contained hydroquinone, then ochronosis is a side effect which happens due to prolonged usage of this cream. Ochronosis is difficult to treat but some options are there. If you can send some photos in private chat, i can tell you treatment options.
