I've noticed these small circular indentations on both sides of the center of my chest, and the skin around them is kind of reddish. It feels a little weird when I breathe, but otherwise, it's not bothering me much. The itching only gets worse when I'm out in the sun. Is this something I should be worried about? What's causing it? Could it have anything to do with a condition known as "having a of 16084"?

history is incomplete! but acc to external changes it maybe Marian's syndrome

I've been dealing with dandruff and a lot of hair fall lately. I'm also noticing some stubborn dark spots popping up on my back and shoulders, which I think might be from the dandruff. It's really starting to worry me. Could it all be connected or is there something else going on? What should I do to tackle this situation?
