I'm a 22-year-old guy and I've been noticing that the skin on my inner thighs and especially my penis is way darker than the rest of my body, which I'm really not happy about. Plus, I've got some white spots on the back of my penisnone on the frontand I wonder if it's from masturbation. It seems like the back is more sensitive too. I've got some pictures that clearly show the difference in color and the spots. Could you help me figure out what's going on and how I can even out my skin tone?
please physically see a qualified dermatologist and discuss this with him

I'm a 25-year-old guy and I've been dealing with some intense itching around my private area for the past few months. It's gotten so bad that the skin has turned black. I've tried using things like Nicil powder, but nothing seems to help stop the itch. What could be going on, and how can I get some relief?
That could be fungal infection,visit Dermatologist for evaluation and appropriate management and also maintain personal Hygiene for better results
