I'm using Deriva BPO gel for my acne, and while it's helping with the breakouts, I'm left with these dark spots once the acne is gone. Do you have any advice on how I can get rid of these spots?

View allI'm dealing with really swollen and painful armpits for about a week now. There's nothing visible except for the swelling. Should I be worried, or is there something specific I should be doing or looking out for?
Swollen and painful armpits for a week warrant medical attention; possible causes include infected lymph nodes, hidradenitis suppurativa, or an allergic reaction; apply warm compresses to reduce discomfort and schedule an appointment with a doctor, who may prescribe antibiotics or further testing, such as a biopsy or ultrasound, to determine the underlying cause.

I'm really concerned because I was just scratching my balls and out of nowhere I felt this sharp pain. When I checked, I noticed that the skin on my left testicle looked really dry and it seemed like it was cracking or cutting up. This isn't the first time it's happened either, and I just can't figure out why this keeps coming back. Could you help me understand what's going on?
That could be fungal infection which needs both oral and topical antifungal medications and personal hygiene is more important for such condition.
