Hello. I am a female teen 16 years old and I was on a vacation until few days ago. I was sunbathing a lot and I have developed a reddish color on some spots that later turned white, but I wasn't overexposed. This isn't ordinary sunburn and I see that the pigment is different. Any ideas what this is, and how to treat it?
I don't know if you have what I have, but every time I go sunbathing I develop white patches on my ties and arms. I went to the doctor and he gave me something that didn't work. Than a friend told me that I should use a shampoo that is called selsun blue shampoo (seleniumsulfide shampoo), and it worked. Try that if you can find it.
