I've noticed a white formation around my penis that's really irritating and makes me want to scratch. When I take a bath, the white stuff goes away and my skin is actually black. What could this be? It's starting to worry me, and I'm not sure if it's something I should be concerned about or if there's a way to treat it. Any advice would be really helpful.

Question

I've been using Betnovate N for about 7-8 years, but whenever I stop, I get these rashes, redness, and itching on my face. I've seen a skin specialist who first gave me Momisoft cream and Uvrid NF sunscreen, along with some tablets for 10 days. That seemed to help, then he switched me to Lutica and the same sunscreen for another 15 days, and it was working well. When I was in Rajasthan, he gave me Desolim cream and the sunscreen, and my skin was fine there. But now I've moved to Guwahati where it's more humid, and the rashes and redness are back. I saw a specialist here and he prescribed Eumosone and other tablets like CFM 500mg, Candimore, Mantrayx, and Lpredace 8mg, but they don't seem to be helping either. The itching and redness are still there, and I'm really desperate to fix this. What should I do to finally get rid of these skin issues?

Question

I'm wondering if kojic cream and Kojiglo gel are the same. Can I use Kojiglo gel instead of kojic cream?

Question

I've got really dry skin, and I've noticed tanning on my forehead that's turned into these dark ridges. And now I'm starting to get these small pimples popping up there too. What could be going on with my skin? How can I treat this?
