I've noticed for about a month now that the underside of my penis seems to be a bit lighter in color compared to the rest. There's also this itchiness that feels really good to scratch, but I'm not sure if that's a bad sign or not. Any idea what might be going on and what I should do about it?

Question

I've noticed these small white patches on my thighs, and they've been there for about a month now. They seem to be spreading, and I'm getting really worried. There's no family history of vitiligo, which makes it even more confusing. I've tried using Momate cream and Tacroz 0.1 for two weeks, but there's no sign of improvement. Now, my dermatologist has prescribed Melgain lotion in the morning, Tacroz 0.1 at night, and T.Ascozinc for a month. Do you think this will actually help, or is there anything else I should be considering?

Question

I'm a 45-year-old guy and I've been using hair dye for the past 15 years, but lately I've started having allergic reactions. There's itching on my scalp and face, and my face has turned kind of blackish. I've tried different brands and types, like liquids, powder, and shampoo dyes over the years. Could you suggest a hair dye or maybe tablets that might help with these allergies, and is there an ointment that could help reduce the dark color on my face?

Question

I went to a water park about a week ago, and ever since, I've noticed my skin has gotten darker. I have to maintain lighter skin for my job. All my hands, legs, and face got a bit tanned. Will this naturally resolve over time, or is there something I should do to help my skin return to its usual shade?
