I've noticed some dark patches in my groin area and on my lower back, and it's getting pretty itchy and dry. Also, the skin on my minora has turned hyperpigmented and has this papillary texture, which I've only been seeing for the last few days. It's kinda concerning. What do you think might be going on?
