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 dealing with some issues on my skin that have me pretty concerned. It started with red ringworms on my buttocks, and now they're spreading to my thighs and other parts of my body. I've tried using griseofulvin antifungal soap and cream, but it doesn't seem to be helping. Could you give me some advice on what to do next or suggest any other treatments?

no problem you take
