Dead skin spot
I have a dead skin spot on my right hand upper side on forarm for almost two months. I’ve been applying a paste made of lemon, baking soda, and Colgate toothpaste, but I haven’t noticed significant improvement. Now, I’ve started getting a similar spot on my left wrist and have been applying the same paste. Please suggest a remedy.

Detailed history and clear images are required for proper diagnosis and treatment. Don't not apply any homemade paste. It might change the appearance of lesion and it becomes difficult to diagnose.
