I've always had these dark patches on both sides of my scrotum, but the one on the left is bigger. I thought maybe it was because of sweat since I usually sleep on my left side. Recently, though, I've not been bathing as regularly, and with the summer heat, I've been sweating a lot around my groin area. Now those dark patches have spread to my thighs and maybe under the scrotum too, and they're itching really badly. Could this be jock itch? When I wash it, the skin looks a bit red, but it's mostly dark and has a different texture. I've got a couple of concerns. Can tinea cruris get this bad so suddenly? Like, I didnt have any itching a few days ago, and now its spreading super fast. And what about those dark patches from before? Were they just because of sweat, or was it something else? How long do you think it will take to heal if I use over-the-counter clotrimazole?
Probable diagnosis is fungal infection , candid cream for local application, once daily for 2 weeks is advised, also tab levocetrizine 10 mg at bedtime for 7 days is advised, if any allergic reactions dermat opinion is advised.

My brother has had stable vitiligo for about a year now after 5 years. Is there any surgery or treatment that can bring his skin back to normal within 2 months? If not, what's the fastest way to restore his normal skin? He's really stressed about starting college in Hyderabad with this condition.
While a complete return to normal skin color within two months is unlikely for vitiligo, several treatments can help improve the appearance and potentially slow the progression of the condition. Stable vitiligo means the condition hasn't spread for a year, which is a good sign, but it's crucial to remember that vitiligo is a chronic condition, and there is no cure
