I've got this rash that's formed a straight line along my neck, and I'm also dealing with some bronchitis-like symptoms. Do you think there's a connection between the two? Should I be worried about this?

I'm trying to tackle some dark spots and acne marks using products from the derma co line. Right now I'm using an alpha arbutin serum and I'm thinking of adding a kojic acid cream to my routine. Is it okay to use these two together? I'm just a bit concerned about how they might interact with each other. Would appreciate any advice!

I'm experiencing some really annoying itching in my scrotum, especially at night. And when I'm walking or moving around, it really bothers me in the groin area. It's just starting, so I can usually control the urge to scratch, but it gets tough sometimes. Do you have any idea what might be causing this or what I can do about it?

Candid cream for local application is advised for 3 weeks, along with tab flucanozole 150 mg once a week for 2 weeks is advised to the patient.
