A member asked:
I been noticing white spots on my stomach and back, what can that be & would aloe vera gel help if it's a fungus?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It is most: Likely fungal. Aloe vera will not help. You need an antifungal cream such as lotrimin (clotrimazole). Apply it daily for about 3 weeks. It doesn't kill fungus but stops its growth until the skin grows it out. If no improvement consider getting seen.
