I've been seeing these black lines on my fingernail for the past few weeks and it seems like they're getting thicker and wider. I'm not sure if this is something to be worried about with my health or if it's just nothing. Should I be concerned?

I'm waking up every morning with this itchy feeling all over my body, and I'm even getting mild hives. It's really strange because I've never had any skin allergies before, so I'm curious about what could be causing this. It's pretty frustrating, and I'm starting to worry. Can you tell me what's going on and what might help?

The itchy skin and mild hives, particularly in the morning, could be due to dry skin, environmental factors, stress, hormonal changes, or skin conditions like eczema or urticaria, so consult a dermatologist to determine the underlying cause and develop a treatment plan.

Could you help me figure out how to lighten the skin between my thighs? It's gotten darker, maybe from friction or wearing tight jeans. Also, near the scrotum, the skin is darker because I had ringworm there as a child. What can I do about this?
