I'm a mom to a 10-month-old baby boy, and I've noticed his skin is quite dark. I'm really hoping to enhance his skin tone. Could you share some safe skin whitening tips for babies? I'm worried about any potential side effects these might have, and I'm curious if the changes would be permanent. Just want to make sure it's safe for my little one.

I've been dealing with this really frustrating skin infection near my private area, and I'm not sure what to do. It's called gachkaran, and the itching is terrible, especially at night. Do you have any advice or solutions for this?

Skin infections near the private parts can be caused by various factors such as fungal or bacterial infections. To help with itching and treat the infection, you can use an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole 1% cream. Apply a thin layer of the cream to the affected area twice a day, preferably in the morning and before bedtime. Additionally, keeping the area clean and dry, wearing loose cotton underwear, and avoiding tight clothing can also help in managing the infection. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it is recommended to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.
