I've had this red blotch on my chest for a couple of years now, and it's not going away; it just keeps getting bigger. Now I'm seeing even more red blotches popping up. What could be causing this, and should I be worried?

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.

View allI'm dealing with macular amyloidosis, which has caused the skin on my legs to become pigmented. I'm really looking for any treatment options to help with this issue. I've attached a picture for more clarity. Could you advise on any potential solutions?
Treatment options for this condition may include topical corticosteroids like Clobetasol propionate cream to help reduce inflammation and lighten the pigmented areas. Another option could be topical retinoids like Tretinoin cream to promote skin cell turnover and improve skin texture. It is important to use these medications as directed by your healthcare provider and to follow up regularly for monitoring.

I've been dealing with this constant itching on my body that's really bugging me. Weirdly, there are no rashes, but my skin underneath looks really dark, almost black. I've tried tons of allergy meds like antibiotics, evil 50, and levocet, but nothing seems to work. On top of that, I've also noticed these small bumps on my penis, and I'm worried it might be a fungal infection. Any ideas on what could be going on or what I should do next?
