I've been dealing with this really intense itching on my lower back and abdomen, and I suspect it might be a fungal infection. I'm wondering if there's a gel with clotrimazole 2 mg that I could use to help with this. Could you recommend something effective for this kind of skin issue?

I'm 45 and have these big dark spots on my stomach and thighs. They aren't itchy or anything, just plain but really dark, and it seems like they're spreading. What could they be, and how can I get rid of them?

These dark spots could be a condition called dermatosis papulosa nigra, which is common in individuals with skin of color, like yourself. To help reduce the appearance of these spots, you can try using topical retinoids like Adapalene gel in the evening on the affected areas. Additionally, using a sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher during the day can help prevent further darkening of the spots. Make sure to apply the medication as directed by your doctor for best results.
