I've been noticing these black round patches on the skin near my buttocks and penis area, and they're super itchy. They seem to be getting larger every day. Could you help me figure out what's going on?

I'm noticing these round-shaped rashes popping up in different spots on my skin. They kinda look like a fungal infection. Sometimes they itch a little, but they aren't super red. I've been using Micozel on them. What else should I be doing or looking out for?

1. *Infection risk*: Derma rolling can push dandruff flakes and bacteria deeper into the scalp, leading to infections. 2. *Irritation*: Derma rolling can cause micro-injuries, which may exacerbate dandruff irritation and inflammation. *Preparation is Key* Before using a derma roller on dandruff-affected hair: 1. *Treat the dandruff*: Use an anti-dandruff shampoo and scalp treatment for at least 2-3 weeks to reduce flaking and inflammation.
