I've been dealing with white, dry patches around my groin area, including on the scrotum and penis. I was diagnosed with a fungal infection a few months ago and took medication which cleared up the infection, but the dryness and skin flaking haven't gone away. Any ideas on what might be causing this or how I can treat it? I'm kind of worried about it.

Question

I've been dealing with some intense skin itching at night ever since I recovered from dengue fever a week ago. It's mostly on my hands and legs and feels more like bump skin rather than a red rash. Could this itching be related to my recent dengue, or should I be worried about another skin issue? I'm really concerned and could use some guidance.

Question

I'm dealing with a fungal infection that's been around for years and it's really bothering me. It's located on my inner thighs and has left a dark brown patch. I'm not sure if my diet could be affecting this, but I am a non-vegetarian. Could you offer any advice or treatment options?

Question

Can I use Retino-A cream for my dark underarms? Will it help in lightening my skin? I also have dark areas near my neck and inner thighs. Can I apply Retino-A cream there as well?
