I'm really worried about this vitiligo I've had on my hands for the last 3 years. It's starting to spread to my face too. I've tried so many medications, but nothing seems to be helping. How can I stop it from spreading further?

I've been dealing with a skin allergy and I'm a bit concerned since I donated blood back in January. I'm also noticing that my cholesterol levels are slightly high. Should I be worried about how these could be related or affect my health?

I'm feeling really uncomfortable because yesterday night I scratched my testicles and now they're all red and have rashes. I tried putting some coconut oil on them, but it hasnt really helped much. Could you suggest any medicine or treatment that might work?

This could be fungal infection u need to evaluate with your Dermatologist and get appropriate treatment with oral antifungal medications and topical lotions,once the infection is resolved your hair fall would come down,I suggest you not to use minoxidil with active fungal infection,above this your personal hygiene care is more important.

I'm dealing with this ringworm issue on my testicles and the area around them for the past 5-6 years, and even though I've used many antifungal creams recommended by doctors, nothing seems to work. It's especially bad when I sweat a lot in the summer, and the itching gets unbearable. Do you have any advice on how I can permanently get rid of this? Any help would be really appreciated.
