I'm really worried because I applied honey to my scalp and hair recently, and now my mom is saying that it could be the reason my hair is turning white. I'm wondering if it's true that honey can actually cause black hair to turn white?

I've been dealing with some pretty bad acne and breakouts on my face, shoulders, and back since I had chickenpox about three years ago. Before that, I never really had any issues with acne, so I'm super frustrated. I went to a bunch of doctors and tried different creams and tablets, but nothing seems to work. It's been a few years now, and every time one breakout heals, another one pops up. Could this be connected to the way the chickenpox was treated back then, or is there something else going on? I'm really worried because my face is a mess right now and I'm not sure what else to do. Any advice or solutions for dealing with acne after chickenpox?

I've noticed that I have dark skin between my breasts and I'm trying to figure out if it's because of sweat or maybe the clothes I'm wearing. It's starting to feel a bit unhygienic, and I'm a little concerned. Do you have any suggestions for medicine or treatments that could help with this?

I'm dealing with some serious itching and irritation around my pubic area, and I'm really worried. There are these white or grey spots with light pink in between, and the skin looks different from the surrounding area. It seems like this is spreading to my groin and even affecting my scrotum, which also feels infected. It's really covering a good part of the area between my thighs, and the itching is just unbearable. What could this be, and how should I handle it?

That looks like fungal infection which needs oral and topical antifungal medication and personal hygiene is the main stay, visit Dermatologist for appropriate management.
