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?

I'm experiencing some really annoying itching in my scrotum, especially at night. And when I'm walking or moving around, it really bothers me in the groin area. It's just starting, so I can usually control the urge to scratch, but it gets tough sometimes. Do you have any idea what might be causing this or what I can do about it?

Candid cream for local application is advised for 3 weeks, along with tab flucanozole 150 mg once a week for 2 weeks is advised to the patient.

2 days ago, I accidentally touched the hot silencer of my bike with the lower part of my leg just above my feet. I quickly did a cold compress and have been using Silverex Ionic on it since. Now, the skin has turned dark and dry, and I'm noticing a lot of blisters that keep breaking. Most of the time a water-like substance is coming out of them. What medications should I take? I'm also attaching some pictures from when the accident happened and what it looks like now. Any advice would be appreciated.
