Still on skin bleaching creams

I read your last week column on the above subject matter. I have a skin disease which has made my skin to be very dark.  I want to know if I can use a bleaching cream to make the skin lighter.

What you will need for your skin problem will be an appropriate skin medication which will cure the underlying skin problem rather than a skin bleaching cream. In view of this, it will be a good idea for you to see a skin specialist (Dermatologist) at the specialist or teaching hospital nearest to you.
