I've got this dark horizontal line right in the middle of my nose and it's been bothering me. I've tried a few medicines and creams, but nothing seems to work. Do you have any idea what's causing this or any suggestions on how to treat it?

I'm wondering if my fair is good because I have some black areas around my neck and on my forehead. If this is normal or healthy, I'm thinking of starting to use some kind of cream. Can you give me some advice on whether I should be concerned or if starting a cream would be a good idea?

I recently tried using chuna and washing powder on my face to deal with some black pimples, but now my skin is burned. I'm concerned about whether I'll end up with burn marks on my face. Could that happen? What should I do to treat it?

I'm feeling really uncomfortable because yesterday night I scratched my testicles and now they're all red and have rashes. I tried putting some coconut oil on them, but it hasnt really helped much. Could you suggest any medicine or treatment that might work?

This could be fungal infection u need to evaluate with your Dermatologist and get appropriate treatment with oral antifungal medications and topical lotions,once the infection is resolved your hair fall would come down,I suggest you not to use minoxidil with active fungal infection,above this your personal hygiene care is more important.
