What Causes White Spots And Itchiness On The Underarms Despite Using Microbenz And Clindac-A?

Recently white spots/marks started appearing on my both upperarm. It doesnt cause any irritation. Consulted a dermatologist and she said, its a pigmentation problem occur to allergy prone people and gave me 2 topicals. Microbenz 3.5 for night and Clindac A gel for morning application and also told me to expose the area to sunlight. After a week of usage, I started to have irritation and itching, lead to small hives. I stopped the medication immediately.
