I have few big white patches on both my foot. I am taking treatment under dermatologist since august but still no sign of any recovery. Now a days I am using Pacroma, topcort and Vitix. Before this I was told to take olmis inplace of Pacroma and melgain. Also taking antioxidants. Can you please help me recover from this disease.

Without exposure to sunlight none of these will work. If it is only over the legs you can go for punch grafting or tattooing the area. If it is extensive you will require systemic therapy for which consultation privately is required.
