I'm dealing with this skin issue I'm not sure how to explain it entirelyits something called "KaratMarathi" I think? I don't know what the English term for this disease is, but its like the blood freezes in a small circular area about the size of a coin. Its got a noticeable point and its showing up between my legs, like right below the private parts. Do you have any advice on what this might be or how I could treat it? I'm in the USA right now, so any help or guidance would be appreciated.

If your body makes too much melanin, your skin gets darker. Pregnancy, Addison's disease, and sun exposure all can make your skin darker.

I'm dealing with this itching issue around the hairy area near my penis and some other parts nearby. Its not super severe, but its to the point where I need candid powder just to get out of bed and feel okay in the mornings. And I can't seem to step outside without a shower first. What's a permanent fix for this? Could you suggest something that can help in the long run?
It sounds like you may be experiencing a fungal infection in the groin area. To treat this condition, you can use an antifungal cream such as Clotrimazole cream twice daily for 2-4 weeks. Additionally, you can take oral antifungal medication like Fluconazole 150mg once a week for 4 weeks. It is important to maintain good hygiene, keep the area clean and dry, and avoid wearing tight clothing. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please consult a doctor for further evaluation and management.

I've noticed some black spots on my buttocks and I'm wondering what could be causing them. Do you think they'll fade away on their own, or is there something I should do? If there's a cream that might help reduce them, could you let me know what it is?
could be due to post inflamation You can use a gentle scrub or a chemical exfoliant like salicylic acid or glycolic acid to exfoliate the skin. However, be gentle, as over-exfoliation can make pigmentation worse.You can use skin-lightening creams that contain ingredients like: Niacinamide: Helps lighten dark spots and even out skin tone. Vitamin C: Reduces pigmentation and brightens the skin. Hydroquinone: A bleaching agent that can help fade dark spots over time (but should be used with caution and under dermatological supervision). Alpha Arbutin: A mild skin lightener that reduces dark spots.
